2x + y = 3
3x - y = 12
Add both equations
5x = 15, x = 3
2(3) + y = 3
6 + y = 3, y = -3
Solution: x = 3, y = -3... or (3,-3)

Answer: -4</h3>
==========================================================
Explanation:
We can pick any two rows from the table to get the (x,y) points needed to find the slope.
Let's say we pick the second and third rows
Subtract the y values: 14-6 = 8
Subtract the x values in the same order: 1-3 = -2
Divide the differences: 8/(-2) = -4
The slope is -4
--------------------------------------------------
You can use the slope formula
Let's say the points are (x1,y1) = (1,14) and (3,6)
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (6-14)/(3-1)
m = -8/2
m = -4
It's the same basic idea as the previous section. You subtract the y values together (y2-y1) and the x values together (x2-x1) and divide the differences to get m. The order of subtraction doesn't matter as long as you stay consistent. If you do something like y2-y1 and x1-x2, then you'll get the wrong slope value.
Answer:
3 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 hour is 30 minutes so 1.5 x 2 is 3
Okay well, if you make a graph, Point A (7,0) and Point B (4,6) are in the top right quadrant. and Point C (1,1) and Point D (5,3) are in the top left, top right, and bottom left quadrant (I'll link a photo of the graph.)
so the lines intersect and make it perpendicular
