If {4x-3y=17 and 2x-5y=-11 then y=?

You need to solve this "system of linear equations."  In other words, find a point (x,y) that satisfies both 4x-3y=17 and 2x-5y=-11.

Try solution by elimination.  Multiply the 2nd equation by -2 to obtain -4x+5y=22.  Add this result to the 1st equation.  I'd suggest you write this out to see what is happening.  

 4x-3y=17

-4x+10y=22
----------------
        7y=39.  Solving for y, we get y=39/7 (a rather awkward fraction).

Now find x.  To do this, substitute 39/7 for y in either of the given equations.  Solve the resulting equation for x.

Write your solution in the form (x, y):  ( ? , 39/7).

Six students collect buttons for a project. The students have 10, 14, 15, 12, 13, and 14 buttons. They divide the buttons evenly
vovangra [49]

Answer:

13 buttons

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to add the buttons received by the 6 students.

= 10 + 14 + 15 + 12 + 13 + 14

= 78 buttons

Therefore the number of buttons received by each students can be calculated as follows

= 78/6

= 13 buttons

Hence each student will receive 13 buttons

Graph a line with a slope of -3 that contains the point (4, -2)
Crank

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Slope m=-3

A point (x, y)=(4,-2)

Equation of a line can generally be written as

y=mx+c

Where, m is the slope

And c is the intercept on y-axis

Since we are given m=-3

Then, y=mx+c becomes

y=-3x+c

To get c, let substitute the point given, i.e x=4 and y=-2

y=-3x+c

-2=-3(4)+c

-2=-12+c

-2+12=c

c=-2+12

c=10

y=mx+c, then m=-3 and c=10

Then, the equation the line becomes y = -3x + 10

This is the required line equation
