Answer:
a=2 , b= (-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
8a-4b=20/×(-2)
5a-8b=62
-16a+8b= -40
5a-8b=62
now -8+8=0 right? so the only parameter that we have is a.
-16a+5a= -40+62
11a = 22/(÷11)
a=2
in order to find b, we will replace a with its value in one of the original equations (it doesn't matter which one you will choose).For instance, I chose the first one.
8×2-4b=20
-4b=20-16
-4b=4/÷(-4)
b= -1
Answer:
<h2>The slope m = 2</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:
<em>y = mx + b</em>
<em>m</em><em> - slope</em>
<em>b</em><em> - y-intercept</em>
<em />
We have the equation:
<em>y = 2x - 1 → m = 2, b = -1</em>
Where the blue scribble is!
Answer:
a line segment because it never said anything about a curve
The variable would be m Lol
