Answer: m = 6

Step-by-step explanation: Start by writing down the slope formula.

m = y₂ - y₁ / x₂ - x₁

We take the second y minus the first y over the second x minus the first x.

m = 5 - (-7) / 5 - 3

m = 12 / 2

m = 6

So the slope of our line is 6.

Would appreciate some help with this question, I am struggling!

ValentinkaMS [17]

I think you would multiply 14m x 9m which is 126m and then you would multiply 2.4m and 3.8m which is 9.12m. Last you would subtract 9.12m from 126m which is 116.88m...I’m sry if this isn’t correct

STRUCTURE Without graphing or solving, determine the number of solutions of the system.

Mkey [24]

I believe the answer would be "infinitely many solutions" because you can put any number as x and y would be a different answer each time for both of the equations given. i hope this helps :)

Help help help guys show you solution

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) y = 2x ----------(I)

x + y = 6 -----------(II)

Plug in y =2x in equation (II)

x + 2x = 6 {Add like terms}

3x = 6

x = 6/3

x = 2

Plugin x = 2 in (I)

y = 2*2

y = 4

Check:

LHS = x +y

= 2 + 4

= 6 = RHS

2)5x + 10y = 3 ------------(I)

x = (-1/2) y ------------(II)

Substitute x = (-1/2)y in (I)

$5*\frac{-1}{2}y + 10y = 3\\\\\frac{-5}{2}y+ \frac{10*2}{1*2}y = 3\\\\\frac{-5}{2}y+\frac{20}{2}y=3\\\\\frac{-5+20}{2}y = 3\\\\\frac{15}{2}y=3\\\\ y = 3*\frac{2}{15}\\\\ y = \frac{2}{5}$

Substitute y = (2/5) in equation (II)

$x = \frac{-1}{2}*\frac{2}{5}\\\\x = \frac{-1}{5}$

Check:

Substitute x and y value in equation (I)

$LHS = 5*\frac{-1}{5}+10*\frac{2}{5}\\\\ = -1 + 2*2\\\\ = -1 + 4\\ = 3 = RHS$

3) y - x = 3x + 2

y = 3x + 2 + x

y = 4x + 2 ---------------(I)

2x + 2y = 14 - y

2x + 2y +y = 14

2x + 3y = 14 ------------------(II)

Substitute y = 4x + 2 in equation (II)

2x + 3(4x +2) = 14

2x + 3*4x + 3*2 = 14

2x + 12x + 6 = 14

14x + 6 = 14

14x = 14 - 6

14x = 8

x = 8/14

x = 4/7

Substitute 'x' value in (I)

$y = 4*\frac{4}{7} +2\\\\y = \frac{16}{7}+2\\\\y= \frac{16}{7}+\frac{2*7}{1*7}\\\\y=\frac{16}{7}+\frac{14}{7}\\\\y=\frac{30}{7}$

Check:

 $LHS = 2x + 3y\\\\ = 2*\frac{4}{7}+3*\frac{30}{7}\\\\ = \frac{8}{7}+\frac{90}{7}\\\\=\frac{8+90}{7}\\\\=\frac{98}{7}\\\\=14 = RHS$
