5.5x + 3 = y
7x =y

5.5x + 3 = 7x (-5.5x both sides)

3 = 1.5x (÷1.5 both sides)

X = 2

Michael takes two hours

The equation of the line is y=6x+37

Step-by-step explanation:

You can write the equation using the slope intercept form techniques which is y=mx+c where m is the slope of the line and cis they intercept constant.

Given the point (-6,1) and slope m=6then

Δy/Δx =m

y-1/x--6 = 6\\\\y-1/x+6=6\\\\\\y-1=6(x+6)\\\\\\y-1=6x+36\\\\\\y=6x+36+1\\\\y=6x+37

Write and solve a word problem that can be modeled by addition of two negative numbers integers
777dan777 [17]
<span>A word problem that can be modeled by addition of two negative numbers integers is given as followed.

Evans and Irvin are standing at the same spot. Evans took 7 steps backwards and another 7 steps backward, what is the current position of Evans relative to where Irvin is standing?

To solve the above, we note that Evans </span><span>took 7 steps backwards and another 7 steps backward, thus his current position relative to Irvin is given by (-7) + (-7) = -7 - 7 = -14.

Therefore, Evans is 14 steps backwards relative to where Irvin is standing.
