Answer:
x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is that y is equal to -3 and x is equal to 7
2x-y=17
-2(x-y)=10 )
--------------
2x-y=17
-2x+2y=-20
----------------
y=-3
x-y=10
x-(-3)=10
x+3=10
-3 -3
----------
x=7
Answer:
a) y = .70x + 20
-To find this, use the rate as x since it will change based on the number of miles. Since 20 is a flat fee, it can be added at the end as a constant.
b) This graph forms a straight line.
-This is because the answer in a is a linear equation.
c) The slope is .70 and the y-intercept is 20.
-For this one, the y-intercept is always the constant at the end of the equation and the slope is the coefficient of x.
Linear because x moves up by 3 and y moves up by 7
