7x + 3y = -12
2x + 5y = 38
5y = -2x + 38
y = -2x/5 + 38/5
7x + 3•(-2x/5+38/5) = -12
29x/5 = -174/5
29x = -174
x = - 6
x=-6
y = -2x/5+38/5
y = -(2/5)(-6)+38/5 = 10
x=-6
y=10

Select the equation in which the graph of the line has a negative slope and the y-intercept equals 10.

PolarNik [594]

That would be C.

20x + 5y = 50
5y = - 20x + 50
y = -20/5x + 50/5
y = - 4x + 10
now in y = mx + b form. the m represents ur slope and the b represents ur y intercept. So here, u have a slope of -4 and a y intercept of 10.
