Switch y=2x+7 to 2x-y=-7 then multiply that equation by 2 to cancel out the y's. that ends up as 4x-2y=-14 which then you get x=-24. then you substitute x into one of the original equations y= 2(-24)+7 which equals y=-41
Answer:
y = -6; -3; 0
Step-by-step explanation:
To quickly solve this problem, we can use a graphing tool or a calculator to plot the equation.
Please see the attached image below, to find more information about the graph
The equation is:
f(x) = 2x+2 , x < -3
f(x) = x, x = -3
f(x) = - x -2 , x > -3
From the graph, we can see that the values are
y = -6; -3; 0
Y = mx + c
7= (-5)(-2)+ c
7= 10 +c
7-10=c
-3=c
Equation of the line: y = -5x-3
Sub in (a, 2)
2= - 5(a)-3
2+3= -5a
5= - 5a
1= - a
A = -1
