Answer:
A: -41/9
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute the point (4, -5) and slope -1/9 into the equation y = mx + b.
-5 = -1/9(4) + b
-5 = -4/9 + b
Solve for b:
b = -41/9
Our equation: y = -1/9(x) - 41/9
Answer:
2 sets of possible solutions:
x=3, y = 5
and
x=-1, y = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the graphical method, (see attached)
you can graph both equations and find their intersection points.
From the attached plot, you can see that the graphs intersect at (3,5) and (-1,-3)
Alternatively, you can solve this numerically by solving the following system of equations. You will get the same answer.
y = 2x + 1 ------------------- eq. (1)
y = x² - 4 ------------------- eq. (2)
