Y2-y1/x2-x1
(1,14) & (3,4)
y2= 4
y1=14
x2=3
x1=1

So....

(4-14)/(3-1) = -10/2 = -5

The answer should be negative instead of positive, she probably subtracted 4 from 14 instead.

x=3(

4. 5+x=-18

x=-18-5

x=-23

5. -14=10-6x

6x=10+14

6x=24

x=4

6. 2x-2=x+12

2x-x=12+2

x=14

7. 3x-31=2

3x=2+31

3x=33

x=11

8. 5x-14=16

5x=16+14

5x=30

x=6

9. 2x+8=4(5-x)

2x+8=20-4x

2x+4x=20-8

6x=12

x=2

10. 2x-3=3(1+x)

2x-3=3+3x

2x-3x=3+3

-x=6

Solve the system of equations.<br> - 5x – 3y - 9 = 0<br> 4x – 187 - 54 = 0

liberstina [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve simultaneously

-5x-3y=9

4x-187-54=0

4x=241

x=60.25

To get y

Substitute for x in equal one

-5(60.25)-3y=9

-301.25-3y=9

-3y=9+301.25

-3y=310.25

y=-103.4
