You can plug -x - 1 for y in the first equation
2x - (-x - 1) = 10
2x + x + 1 = 10
Combine
3x = 9
Divide
x = 3
Plug 3 for x in any equation ( I'll use th second equation )
y = - (3) - 1
y = - 3 - 1 = -4
x = 3 ; y = -4
(3, -4)
You read 2/5 of the remainder on Sunday. That means 3/5 of the remainder are unread (1- 2/5). It is given that 36 pages are unread. Therefore 3/5 of the remainder is equal to 36. Set up equation and solve for x which will be the remainder
3/5x=36
x=36(5/3)
x=60
The slope is 2x and the y intercept is 5
The slope is positive
<span>4/10 8/20 2/5 These fractions you then simplify and get a product of 40 hope this helps you figure the answer out quicker.</span>
