0.08x + 0.03y = 345, and to solve for each x and y, you can use the substitution method.
Y = -2x + 5 y =3x - 2
Since both equations are equal to 'y' you can set them equal to each other to solve.
-2x + 5 = 3x - 2 Subtract 3x from both sides
-5x + 5 = -2 Subtract 5 from both sides
-5x = -7 Divide -5 on both sides
x = 7/5
Plug 7/5 back in for x and solve for y.
y = -2(7/5) + 5
y = (-14/5) + (25/5)
y = 11/5
(7/5, 11/5) OR (1.4, 2.2)
Answer:
C. 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Gradient = ![\frac{change in y}{change in x}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7Bchange%20in%20y%7D%7Bchange%20in%20x%7D)
Gradient = ![\frac{6}{3}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B6%7D%7B3%7D)
Gradient = 2
