ANSWER:
a = 11
b = 2
Explaination:
We have two equations:
a = 5b + 1 .....................(1)
a = 3b + 5.....................(2)
Here we use substitution method in order to solve the set of equations.
put a=3b+1 to equation (1)
3b + 5 = 5b + 1
Solve for b
5 = 5b -3b + 1
5-1 =2b
4 = 2b
b = 2
Now put the value of b = 2 into the equation (1) or (2)
a = 5b + 1
a = 5(2) + 1
a = 10 + 1
a = 11

Answer:
-2
Step-by-step explanation:
-3x -2 = 2x +8
-2 = 5x +8 . . . . . . add 3x
-10 = 5x . . . . . . . . subtract 8
-2 = x . . . . . . . . . . divide by 5
You find how y and x change and then divide y/x to get your rate of change
