One number is 2 less than a second number.

Mathematics
1 answer:
skad [1K]3 years ago

Answer:

x = one number

y = second number

Where,

x = y - 3

2y = 4x - 16

Multiply the first equation by 2 and substitute the second equation into it.

2(x=y-3) : 2x = 2y - 6

 

2x = (4x - 16) - 6

Combine like terms

2x = 4x - 22

2x - 2x + 22 = 4x - 2x -22 + 22

22 = 2x

22/2 = 2x/2

11 = x

Answer:

y=-1/4x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We're given the point (-8,3) and a slope of -1/4

lines are typically written in the formula y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

as we are already given the slope, we can substitute its value into the equation

substitute -1/4 as m

y=-1/4x+b

now we need to find b

as the equation passes through the point (-8,3),we can use it to solve for b

substitute -8 as x and 3 as y

3=-1/4(-8)+b

multiply

3=2+b

subtract 2 from both sides

1=b

substitute 1 as b

y=-1/4x+1
