Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
me need slope and y intercept to get it in y=mx+b form (slope intercept)
Slope is the
difference in y / differences in x
differences in y = 6.5 -3 = 3.5
difference in x = 2 - 1 = 1
so slope is 3.5/1 or just 3.5
(now you can see the answer is c but lets check it by getting the y intercept too)
y intercept
this is when x is 0
the lowest x we see is 1 so if I go bacl to 0 in x the y must for back 3.5
3-3.5 is -0.5
so equation is y=3.5x -0.5 so the closest is c
Answer:
y= -2
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply the top equation by 2 to get
2x + 6y = -2
then subtract the bottom equation by the new equation to get
2x + 6y = -2
--------------------
2x + 2y = 6
which is
4y = -8
y = -2
If y = -2
Then plug -2 into y in the top equation to get x + 3(-2) = -1 and simplify which is
x + (-6) and add 6 to both sides to get x = -1 + 6
which is x = 5
