Answer:
Solution point is (-1,-9)
Step-by-step explanation:
Put the value of y in the first equation into the second equation.
- 2x + 5(3x - 5) = - 42 Remove the brackets on the left
- 2x + 15x - 25 = - 42 Combine like terms on the left
- 17x - 25 = - 42 Add 25 to both sides
- 17x - 25 + 25 = - 42 + 25 Do the addition
- 17x = - 17 Divide by 17
- 17x/17 = -17/17 Do the division
- x = - 1

Solve for y
- y = 3x - 6

No, Perry is not using the correct ratio, because 15:17 is not equivalent to 5:7
