Answer:
1. He added 5 instead of subtracted 5.
2. He should have subtracted 5.
3. 2 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
3x+5=13
subtract 5 to both sides 3x=8
divide both sides by 3 x=8/3 or 2 2/3
Answer:
( 1/3, 5 2/3) Or (0.33, 5.66)
Step-by-step explanation:
If you graph the 2 equations and see where they intersect, they will land on the answer.
Y=mx+b where m=-6, x=-2, and y=-3. Substituting these values in would result in -3=(-6)(-2)+b, which would simplify to -3=12+b, and further to b=-15. This would mean the y intercept is equal to -15, or (0,-15). To check, (-6)*(-2)-15 is in fact equal to -3, thus allowing easy identification of a graph, which will cross the y axis at -15 and decrease in y-value by 6 with every increase in x-value.
