Y = -9x - 2; (4, -37)
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

B. No the ordered pair does not satisfy the equation

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -9x - 2

Substitute the point in and see if it is true

-37 = -9(4) -2

-37 = -36 -2

-37 = -38

This is not true so the point is not a solution

The answer to #2?? I already have the graph but I still need the answer
Sidana [21]
If we have 

y = 6x + 1 and x - y = 11, we can take advantage of  y - y = 0 as follows:
                                         Subtract x from both sides of the 2nd equation:
                                         -y = 11 - x

Now combine 

 y = 6x + 1
-y = 11 - x
--------------
0 = 5x + 12.  Solving for x, x = -12/5.     Using the equation above, find y:
                                                               -y = 11 - x
                                                                   = 11 - (-12/5)
                                                                   = 55/5 + 12/5 = 67/5

Then the solution is (-12.5, 67/5).

trapecia [35]
A. 2x+y=25; x+y=20
x represents cheese wafers and y represents chocolate wafers.

B. I will choose elimination since there is y and y. I can multiply one equation by -1 to get y and -y, which cancels out.
2x+y=25
-x-y=-20

Add equations
x=5

Plug x in
5+y=20
y=15

Final answer: 5 cheese wafers, 15 chocolate wafers
