y = -1 + 3/8x
2x - 5y = 6
Substitute the first equation into the second equation, since y is already by itself.
2x - 5(-1 + 3/8x) = 6
2x + 5 - 15/8x = 6
2x - 15/8x = 1
16/8x - 15/8x = 1
1/8x = 1 Multiply 8 on both sides to get x by itself
x = 8
Plug x into either of the equations.
y = -1 + 3/8(8)
y = -1 + 3
y = 2
2(8) - 5y = 6
16 - 5y = 6
-5y = -10
y = 2

Gordon read a total of 35 pages, so if there is p pages read per day and 10 days you'd have something that looks like this: 35 = 10p.
Answer:
One point greater than the last grade
Step-by-step explanation:
1. First off, N is the variable, so that means it can be any number, and when it uses the word <em>greater</em>, it means to ADD another number, which means one point greater.
It’s B because 5 = -3(-3) - 4
5=9-4
Just plug in the numbers and see what works
