X + y = -10
-3x -y = 2
We'll try with x as a small number and y with a big number to try and balance it out.
-3 - 7 = 10
9 - 7 = 2
X = -3
Y = -7
Hope this helps! :)

What is solve 5x-65=3x-17
NikAS [45]
If you would like to solve 5x - 65 = 3x - 17, you can do this using the following steps:

5x - 65 = 3x - 17
5x - 3x = 65 - 17
2x = 48
x = 48/2
x = 24

The correct result would be 24.

How many units<br> above the x-axis<br> is the point<br> located at (9, 6)?<br> pls help
svetlana [45]

Answer:

6 units above the x-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

The pair (9,6) are a set of coordinates that indicate how far away from the origin (0,0) the point is.

The coordinates are written (x,y) where 'x' is how far to the left or right of the y-axis (vertical) the point is. The 'y' is how far above or below the x-axis (horizontal) the point is.

So in this case, the set of (9,6) means that the point is located at 9 units to the right of the origin and the y-axis and 6 units above the x-axis
