Y = -3x - 1......so we sub in -3x - 1 in for y in the other equation
2x + 5y = 12
2x + 5(-3x - 1) = 12....now distribute the 5 through the parenthesis
2x - 15x - 5 = 12...add 5 to both sides
2x - 15x = 12 + 5..combine like terms
-13x = 17...divide both sides by -13
x = -17/13
now sub in -17/13 for x in the other equation
y = -3x - 1
y = -3(-17/13) - 1
y = 51/13 - 1
y = 51/13 - 13/13
y = 38/13
so the solution is (-17/13, 38/13)
Answer: y= -2/7x-2
Step-by-step explanation:
To be parrell they have to have the same slope but different y intercepts.
so just put -2 so it will cross that point
Answer:6.25 pounds left
Step-by-step explanation: 3 x 1 1/4= 3.75 pounds gone so if you add 6.25 pounds more you are at 10 pounds so
