Answer:97.1
Step-by-step explanation:
replace the 1st equation into the 2nd one for y
-8x-4(2x-5) = -20
-8x-8x+20 =-20
-16x+20 = -40
-16x=-40
x = 5/2 = 2.5
y = 2x-5 - 2(2.5) - 5 = 5-5 = 0
one solution (2.5,0)
Answer: y - 5 = -5/6 (x - 18)
Step-by-step explanation:
The point-slope form of a linear equation is written using the slope of the line and one point in the line. From part A, the slope of the line representing this situation is m = -5/6.
Since x represents the number of 10-student groups and y represents the number of 12-student groups, the combination of 18 groups of 10 students and 5 groups of 12 students is represented by the point (18,5).
