Y = -3x+8
y = -5x-2
------------
y = 5(-3x+8)
y = 3(-5x-2)
---------------
y = -15x+40
y = -15x-6
--------------
y = -15x+40       
       -      - 
y = -15x-6
--------------
y = 46
<span>
y = -3x+8
</span>46 = -3x+8
-8           -8
---------------
38 = -3x

Remember you can do anything to an equation as long as you do it to both sides


notice that they both equatl y
therefor they are equal
-3x+8=y=-5x-2
-3x+8=-5x-2
add 5x to both sides
2x+8=-2
minus 8 from both sides
2x=-10
divide by 2
x=-5

plug in -5 for x in any equation to evaluate y

y=-3x+8
y=-3(-5)+8
y=15+8
y=23

the solution is
x=-5
y=23

(-5,23)

Click the photo to find the measure of each interior angle of the regular polygon
Scorpion4ik [409]
<h3>Answer:  120 degrees</h3>

==============================================

Work Shown:

n = number of sides = 6

i = measure of interior angle

i = 180(n-2)/n

i = 180(6-2)/6

i = 180(4)/6

i = 720/6

i = 120

Each interior angle of this regular hexagon is 120 degrees.

-----------------

Alternative Approach:

E = exterior angle

E = 360/n

E = 360/6

E = 60

Each exterior angle of this regular hexagon is 60 degrees

i+E = 180

i = 180-E

i = 180-60

i = 120

We get the same answer.
