Answer:
y = -11/2x - 52
Step-by-step explanation:
Now follow the equation for slope: m = change in y / change in x.



The slope is -11/2. m=-11/2
Use slope-intercept form:
y=mx+b
Plug in a point and the slope:
-8 = (-11/2)(-8) + b
-8 = 44 + b
b = -52

<u>y = -11/2x - 52</u>
Let's use Gaussian elimination. Consider the augmented matrix,
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc|ccc}1 & -1 & -1 & 1 & 0 & 0\\-1 & 2 & 3 & 0 & 1 & 0\\1 & 1 & 4 & 0 & 0 & 1\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Cccc%7D1%20%26%20-1%20%26%20-1%20%26%201%20%26%200%20%26%200%5C%5C-1%20%26%202%20%26%203%20%26%200%20%26%201%20%26%200%5C%5C1%20%26%201%20%26%204%20%26%200%20%26%200%20%26%201%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
• Add row 1 to row 2, and add -1 (row 1) to row 3:

• Add -2 (row 2) to row 3:
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc|ccc}1 & -1 & -1 & 1 & 0 & 0\\0 & 1 & 2 & 1 & 1 & 0\\0 & 0 & 1 & -3 & -2 & 1\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Cccc%7D1%20%26%20-1%20%26%20-1%20%26%201%20%26%200%20%26%200%5C%5C0%20%26%201%20%26%202%20%26%201%20%26%201%20%26%200%5C%5C0%20%26%200%20%26%201%20%26%20-3%20%26%20-2%20%26%201%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)

So the inverse is

The price of one hat is $2 and one pair of mittens is $5
Step-by-step explanation:
Hats and mittens are on sale at the store!
- One woman was able to buy 5 hats and 4 pairs of mittens for $30
- Another woman purchased 3 pairs of mittens and 2 hats for $19
- The price of one hat is x
- The price of one pair of mittens is y
We need to find x and y
∵ One woman was able to buy 5 hats and 4 pairs of mittens for $30
∵ The price of one hat is x
∵ The price of one pair of mittens is y
- Multiply 5 hats by x and 4 pairs of mittens by y and equate
their sum by 30
∴ 5x + 4y = 30 ⇒ (1)
∵ Another woman purchased 3 pairs of mittens and 2 hats for $19
- Multiply 2 hats by x and 3 pairs of mittens by y and equate
their sum by 19
∴ 2x + 3y = 19 ⇒ (2)
Now we have a system of equations to solve it
Multiply equation (1) by -2 and equation (2) by 5 to eliminate x
∵ -10x - 8y = -60 ⇒ (3)
∵ 10x + 15y = 95 ⇒ (4)
- Add equations (3) and (4)
∴ 7y = 35
- Divide both sides by 7
∴ y = 5
Substitute the value of y in equation (1) or (2) to find x
∵ 2x + 3(5) = 19
∴ 2x + 15 = 19
- Subtract 15 from both sides
∴ 2x = 4
- Divide both sides by 2
∴ x = 2
The price of one hat is $2 and one pair of mittens is $5

Answer: B and D
Step-by-step explanation:
B=-2
D=2
The negative and positive signs cancel out, leaving you with zero.
Ex: you take two steps back, but then you take two steps forward so you're back where you started (0).
