I was not sure if the x in your equation was a multiplication sign or a variable
6/7x
-1 multiplied by 3/7x times -2
And when you multiply two negatives it equals a posible so the -2 and -1 turn into a positive
So let's start by guesstimating the slopes:
the green line has a slope close to -x, but more negative than that, possibly -2; the pink line has a slope close to +x, but higher towards +2.
Next let's look at the solution: the two lines intersect at the point (1, -1).
**you could just simple plug that x (1) into all the equations, but let's rule out answers anyway. ;)
A) is incorrect because the slopes of -1 and +1 are off from out predicted -2 and +2
B) is incorrect because of a similar reason, the slopes of +3 and +1 don't make any sense
C) Ooh, we do have a +2 and -2 for the slopes, and... violà! plug in 1 for the x's and we get -1 for the y in both equations
D) slopes are closer than in A and B, but plugging in 1 doesn't get us -1
So the correct answer is:
C) y = 2x - 3 and y = −2x + 1
Answer:
68
Step-by-step explanation:
15% of 80 is 12 so you subtract 12 from 80 and thats 68.
Answer:
y = 23/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify both sides of equation
7 = y + -2/3
Flip equation
y + -2/3 = 7
Add 2/3 to both sides
y + -2/3 + 2/3 = 7 + 2/3
y = 23/3
The answer is one and five elevenths, or: 1 5/11
this is because 140/2.5 is 56 and 300/5.5 is 54 6/11.
56 - 54 6/11= 1 5/11
