Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since both equations express y in terms of x we can equate the right sides

3x + 5 = - x + 3 ( add x to both sides )

4x + 5 = 3 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

4x = - 2 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = - 0.5

substitute x = - 0.5 in either of the 2 equations

using y = - x + 3 then y = 0.5 + 3 = 3.5

solution is (- 0.5, 3.5 ) → c

Fine the slope of the line through each pair of points . (-8,-20),(5,2)

kozerog [31]

The formula of a slope:

$m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

We have the points (-8, -20) and (5, 2). Substitute:

$m=\dfrac{2-(-20)}{5-(-8)}=\dfrac{22}{13}$

Answer: The slope is $\dfrac{22}{13}$

y : the gas used by second car in 1 particular week
$x + y = 60 \\ x = 60 - y$
$30x + 35y = 1975 \\ 30 \times (60 - y) + 35y = 1975 \\ ... \\ y = 35 \\ x = 60 - y = 60 - 35 = 25$
