i believe it's 22.5 out of 45 to get exactly .500
Plug them in:
x + 5y = 18
x - 3y = 10
F. (1,13)
G. (13,1)
H. (-2,4)
J. (-2,-4)
1 + 5*13 = 18 is obliviously not true so that takes out the first option.
13 + 5*1 = 18 : This is true but we have to check the next one.
13 - 3*1 = 10 : This is also true so we know this is the answer. We don't really need to check the other 2 but u can if u want to.
Hope that helped :) <span />
Hello there! We are given the following equation and want to simplify it:

First, let's use the Distributive Property:
For this step, we are going to let:
After applying this version of the Distributive Property, we are given the equation:

We're going to use the distributive party again, but a slightly different version that's almost the same as first:
Using this on both terms of the equation changes the equation to:

Now, we just remove the parenthesis and combine like terms

This should be your answer. Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!

So remember the formula for working out the slope:
(y2 - y1) ÷ (x2 - x1)
We already know two points:
(11, 5) and (20, 5) (Remember points are like (x, y)
Therefore y2 = 5 and y1 = 5 and x2 = 20 and x1 = 11
Substitute these into the formula from the start:
(y2 - y1) ÷ (x2 - x1)
(5 - 5) ÷ (20 - 11)
0 ÷ 9
And we can determine the slope is equal to 0 as 0 ÷ 9 = 0
So all you need to do is subtract m from both sides.
Then you have your answer
m = 1
I hope this helps
