Answer:

y = -\frac{7x}{3} - 24

Step-by-step explanation:

We can model this function using the equation of a line:

y = ax + b

Where a is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.

To find the values of a and b, we can use the two points given:

(-9, -3):

-3 = a * (-9) + b

-9a + b = -3

(-12, 4):

4 = a * (-12) + b

-12a + b = 4

If we subtract the second equation from the first one, we have:

-12a + b - (-9a + b) = 4 - (-3)

-12a + 9a = 4 + 3

-3a = 7

a = -7/3

Then, finding the value of b, we have:

-12a + b = 4

28 + b = 4

b = -24

So the equation is:

y = -\frac{7x}{3} - 24

Answer: The equation that represents the other equation is y=\dfrac{1}{3}x+5 .

The solution of the system is <u>(3,6).</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear equation: y=mx+c  , where m= slope

c = y-intercept.

In the first table, the y-intercept = 5     [ y-intercept = value of y at x=0.

Slope for first table  = \dfrac{y_2-y_2}{x_2-x_1}=\dfrac{6-5}{3-0}=\dfrac{1}{3}

The equation that represents the first table:

y=\dfrac{1}{3}x+5

So, the equation that represents the other equation is y=\dfrac{1}{3}x+5 .

Also, the solution of the system is the common point (x,y) that satisfy both equations in the system.

Here, x=3 and y=6 is the common value in both tables.

So, the solution of the system is <u>(3,6).</u>

ohaa [14]
6 runners, 3 medals, how many ways to give them? well, runner say 2 could get gold or not, bronze or not and silver or not, and so can any other runnner, and the order "does matter", it makes a distinction, thus, is a Permutation

\bf _nP_r=\cfrac{n!}{(n-r)!}\qquad \qquad _6P_3=\cfrac{6!}{(6-3)!}
