Mathematics

Answer:

x = -5 and y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two equations :

3x − 2y = −21 ....(1)

2x + 5y = 5 ......(2)

Multiply equation (1) by 2 and equation (2) by 3.

6x - 4y = -42 ...(3)

6x + 15y = 15 ....(4)

Subtract equation (4) from (3) :

6x - 4y - (6x + 15y) = -42 -15

-4y -15y = -57

-19y = -57

y = 3

Put y = 3 in equation (2) :

2x + 5(3) = 5

2x = 5-15

2x = -10

x = -5

So, the value of x is (-5) and y = 3.

8. Math on the Spot Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes
PolarNik [594]

Answer: y=-x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer, 5 and -6 have to be substituted in the place of x in the equation y = -x + b(The slope has to be the same because the line is parallel). -6 = -5 + b, b = -1. This means that the equation is y = -x - 1.
