<span>Use the slope intercept form y=<span><span>mx</span>+b, </span></span><span>where </span><span>m</span><span> is the slope and </span><span>b</span><span> is the y-intercept. So with saying that plug your problem in so y = -3x+3 so your answer would be m=-3 which is the slope.
~Hope this Helps! Good Luck!~

<h3>Equation : x + y = 170 and y = 2x - 40</h3><h3>The weight of Bill is 70 pounds and weight of mark is 100 pounds</h3>
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Let the weight of Bill be "x"
Let the weight of mark be "y"
Given that,
Mark and Bill have a combined weight of 170 pounds
Therefore,
x + y = 170 ------- eqn 1
Mark weighs 40 pounds less than twice Bill's weight
y = 2x - 40 ------- eqn 2
<em><u>Substitute eqn 2 in eqn 1</u></em>
x + 2x - 40 = 170
3x = 170 + 40
3x = 210
x = 70
<em><u>Substitute x = 70 in eqn 2</u></em>
y = 2(70) - 40
y = 140 - 40
y = 100
Thus weight of Bill is 70 pounds and weight of mark is 100 pounds

Answer:
30 ml of 45% salt solution and 20 ml of 30% salt solution.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the amount of 45% salt solution and y be the amount of 30% salt solution
the two equation will be:
x+y=60 -- A
0.45x+0.3y=0.4(60) -- B
Solve by substitution
Rewrite Equation A
x+y=60
x=60-y --- C
Substitute C into B
0.45(60-y)+0.3y=24
27-0.45y+0.3y=24
-0.15y=-3
y=20
<u>Substitute</u> the y=20 into equation C
x=60-20
x=30
Therefore, there was 30 ml of 45% salt solution and 20 ml of 30% salt solution.
and positive numbers are greater than
