Answer:

The equation of the line would be y = -1/7x - 37/7

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, we need to start with point-slope form.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Now we can input the slope in for m and the point in for (x1, y1)

y + 6 = -1/7(x - 5)

y + 6 = -1/7x + 5/7

y = -1/7x - 37/7

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

PART A:

The first equation is $x + y = 7\\y = 7 - x .............(a)$

The second equation is $3x - 2y = 1\\2y = 3x - 1$

Putting the value of y from (a) in the above equation, we get $2y = 3x - 1\\2(7 - x) = 3x - 1\\14 - 2x = 3x - 1\\x = 15$

From (a) we get y = 7 - x = 7 - 15 = -8

PART B:

Here the system of equations are $-x + 4y = 17........(a) and 3x - 5y = -30.........(b)$

From (a) we get, $x = 4y - 17$

Putting the above value of x in (b) we get, $3x - 5y = -30\\3(4y - 17) - 5y = -30\\12y - 51 - 5y = -30\\7y = 21\\y = 3$

Hence, $x = 4y - 17 = 12 - 17 = -5$
