Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
2x - y = 11 → (1)
x + 3y = - 5 → (2)
Multiply (1) by 3 and add to (2) to eliminate the y- term
6x - 3y = 33 → (3)
Add (2) and (3) term by term to eliminate y, that is
7x = 28 ( divide both sides by 7 )
x = 4
Answer:
Slope intercept form is y=mx+b
So y=-1/2x(m=slope which you go down one over 2 from your y-intercept)
y=-1/2x ( There would be no b because your b is 0, that's where it crosses the y axis)
Step-by-step explanation:
−3b+2.5=4
Subtract 2.5 from both sides.
−3b+2.5−2.5=4−2.5
−3b=1.5
Divide both sides by -3.
−3b/−3 = 1.5/−3
b=−0.5
