Answer:
x is an independent variable
The answers are - 5x+8y and 5(4)+2(8)=36
Explanation
To solve the equation, you would substitute x and y for 5 and 8.
-Ex: 5(4)+8(2)=36
The numbers in the parentheses get multiplied by the numbers on the outside. Making ‘5(4)’=20 and ‘8(2)’=16
So 5(4)+8(2)=36
Answer:
slope = - 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in point- slope form is
y - b = m(x - a)
where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line
y - 15 = - 6(x + 7) ← is in point- slope form
with slope m = - 6
