Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Systems</u>
y = -3x - 2
5x + 2y = 15
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
<em>Substitution</em>
- Substitute in <em>y</em>: 5x + 2(-3x - 2) = 15
- Distribute 2: 5x - 6x - 4 = 15
- Combine like terms: -x - 4 = 15
- Isolate <em>x</em> term: -x = 19
- Isolate <em>x</em>: x = -19
<u>Step 3: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>
- Define original equation: y = -3x - 2
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: y = -3(-19) - 2
- Multiply: y = 57 - 2
- Subtract: y = 55

The expression for the number of segments drawn out of the n number of points in the circle is,
n² / 2 - n / 2
Substituting directly to the expression the number of points, n, which is equal to 8,
8² / 2 - 8 / 2 = 28
Thus, there are 28 segments that can be drawn from the points.
