Answer:
a=(2/5), b = (-2,6)
Step-by-step explanation:
well slope formula is rise/run. So for the first one you start at the point rise 2 run 5 and you reach the endpoint. That is how you know you got the correct slope. (2/5)
For the second one you start at the first point and you cannot go up because it is a negative slope you run 6 till you hit the other point go down 2. Since you go down 2 that would make it -2. (-2,6)
y+2 = 3x
subtract 2 from each side
y = 3x-2
If the solution of x is 3, then the solution of 6x would be 18, because 3*6=18. :)
Let's solve this system of equations through substitution.
We have these two equations.
-7x-2y=14
6x+6y=18
Now let divide the second equation by 6.
6x+6y=18 ----> x+y=3
Next, let us move y to the right side of the equation.
x+y=3 -------> x=3-y (x equals 3-y)
Because we found out that what x is in terms of y, we can input that in for every instance of x in this equation below.
-7x-2y=14 becomes -7(3-y)-2y=14 (Why? Because x equals 3-y!)
We have a one variable equation now and can solve for y.
-7(3-y)-2y=14
-21+7y-2y=14
5y=35
y=7
Plug in 7 for y in any equation to find x.
x+y=3
x+7=3
x=-4
answer: x=-4, y=7
You has some spelling errors, im guessing this is what you ment :
<span>Lee's muffin mix calls for 2/3 cup of milk, 1/3 Cup of oil and 1/3 cup of sugar. How much more milk than oil does she need for the muffin mix
</span><span>Answer : She needs 1/3 cup more milk than oil
to figure this out do 2/3 - 1/3 = 1/3</span>
