the greatest common factor is 3 so
3x - 9y + 12 = 3(x - 3y + 4)
180 + 30x = 60 + 50x
⇒ 20x = 120
⇒ x = 6 minutes

y=7x-5 This is the same as saying y-7x = -5 Well easy. You just make up numbers that make this work. Let x be 1 y-7=-5 y=-5+7 y=2 So one ordered pair is (1,2) Let x=2 y-14=-5 y=9 So another ordered pair is (2,9) Let x=3 y-21=-5 y=-5+21 y=16 So another ordered pair is (3,16)
hope it helps
Answer:
= -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Find 2 points
(-2, 4) and (1,-5)
We can use the slope formula
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (-5-4)/(1 - -2)
= -9/(1+2)
= -9/3
= -3
