I will solve this equation simultaneously by Substitution.

- x + y = 2
5x + 4y = 17

Solve - x + y = 2 for y:
- x + y + x = 2 + x (here we add x to both sides)
y = x + 2

Substitute x + 2 for y in 5x + 4y = 17
5x + 4y = 17
5x + 4(x + 2) = 17
5x + 4x + 8 = 17
9x + 8 = 17 (simplify both sides of the equation)
9x + 8 + (-8) = 17 + (-8) (add -8 to both sides)
9x = 9
9x/9 = 9/9 (divide both sides by 9)

x = 1

Substitute 1 for x in y = x + 2
y = x + 2
y = 1 + 2
y = 3 ( simplify both sides of the equation)

Therefore x = 1 and y = 3

Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line shown. (-4,0) and (1,-5)
Irina18 [472]

The slope intercept form is y = -x - 4

To find the slope intercept form given a couple of points, start by finding the slope using the slope equation.

m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (-5 - 0)/(1 - -4)

m = -5/5

m = -1

Now we look for the intercept using slope intercept form, our slope and a point.

y = mx + b

0 = -4(-1) + b

0 = 4 + b

-4 = b

Now we can use those two things top model the equation.

y = -x - 4
