Answer:
Ellie can make eight stacks of quarters with four quarters in each stack
Step-by-step explanation:
Lines that are parallel have the same slope, and the given line (y = 6x - 5) has a slope of 6; we are looking for a line with a slope of 6.
To form an equation for a line, you need to know the y-intercept (the point at which the line intersects the y-axis). The first step to finding the y-intercept is to plot the given point. After you've done that, count six units up (this is our slope) and one to the right; plot the point. Lastly, draw the line by connecting the points and see where the line intersects the y-axis.
My graph shows that the line intersects the y-axis at -17. All that's left now is to put our information together into an equation. I'm assuming the problem wants the equation in slope-intercept form; slope-intercept form is y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept, so it would look like this:
y = 6x -17
Hope this helps.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = -1, y = -2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the elimination method,
multiply the first eqn by 2 and the 2nd eqn by 5.
6x - 10y = 14
25x - 10y = -5
Subtract one of the new equations from the other
-19x = 19
x = -1
Sub x=-1 into the 2nd eqn
-5 - 2y = -1
y = -2
Hence x = -1, y = -2.
