The answer is 4 1/3. Would you like an explanation?
Y = -3x + 5
5x - 4(-3x + 5) = -3
5x + 4(3x) - 4(5) = -3
5x + 12x - 20 = -3
17x - 20 = -3
+ 20 + 20
17x = 17
17 17
x = 1
y = -3x + 5
y = -3(1) + 5
y = -3 + 5
y = 2
(x, y) = (1, 2)
Answer: -20
Step-by-step explanation: Using the same expression except positive numbers, 4 x 5 = 20.
In this case, we can use this equation to find the product for the expression
4 x -5.
If 4 x 5 = 20, then 4 times -5 will also equal 20. However, since there is a negative factor in this expression, our answer will be negative causing our answer to be <u>-20.</u>
