Answer:
y = -2x - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula is y = mx + b
m = slope
slope = change in y/change in x = (-1 - 3) / (0 - -2) = -4/2 = -2
So equation is now y = -2x + b
To find b, substitute any value from the table into the equation. Let's use (-2,3)
y = -2x + b
3 = -2(-2) + b
3 = 4 + b
-1 = b
So equation is y = -2x - 1
Answer:
x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
So -11 + 5 = -6, not -16.
Then divide -6 and -2x by -2 and x=3
Answer: The answer is (B) 2x + 3(3x – 5) = 51
.
Step-by-step explanation: We are given three options and we are to select which choice shows the result of substituting 3x – 5 into the second equation for y.
So, y = 3x - 5.
Since the standard form of a linear equation i two variables is ax + by = c, so the second equation as given in the options must be of the form 2x + 3y = 51.
If we substitute y = 3x - 5, then this equation becomes
2x + 3(3x - 5) = 51.
Thus, (B) 2x + 3(3x – 5) = 51 is the correct option.
First of all why is there 2 similar equation connected to one another?
Second in order to solve this all you need to do is plug in the number and solve for x
For 485
85x+60=485
85x=420
X=5
Do the same thing and you get 3
