We have the equation y - 3 = -2(x + 5)

By this we know that -2 is the slope and (-5, 3) is a point on the graph.

Using slope intercept form (y = mx + b), we can solve for the y-intercept (b).

3 = -2(-5) + b

3 = 10 + b

3 - 10 = 10 - 10 + b

-7 = b

Therefore, the answer is B.

Best of Luck!

Find the greatest common factor of 63 and 96

julia-pushkina [17]

The greatest common factor (GCF) of 63 and 96 is: 3

To find the GCF, list all the factors until that go up to 63 since that is the minimum.
Factors of 63: 1, 3, 7, 9, 21, 63
Factors of 96: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 32, 48

Find the common factors between the two numbers which are 1 and 3. Now, which one of those numbers are the greatest/highest? The answer is 3.

Solve this following system by graphing X-y=4 X+y=2

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

The answer is x = 3 and y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

If you were to graph the two lines, their equations would be y = x - 4 and y = -x + 2. The two lines intersect at the point (3, -1), so the solution to the system is x = 3 and y = -1.
