Answer:

y=-x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(5-7)/(0-(-2))

m=-2/(0+2)

m=-2/2

m=-1

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-7=-1(x-(-2))

y-7=-(x+2)

y=-x-2+7

y=-x+5

What is the x-value in the solution to this system of linear equations? 2x − y = 11 x + 3y = −5
Setler [38]

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

Right the slope intercept form of the equation of of each line
Burka [1]

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:

Solve for b<br> −3b+2.5=4<br> Two step equations with fractions and decimals
DIA [1.3K]
−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
