5x + y = 9....multiply by 7
10x - 7y = -18
----------------
35x + 7y = 63 (result of multiplying by 7)
10x - 7y = -18
----------------add
45x = 45
x = 45/45
x = 1
5x + y = 9
5(1) + y = 9
5 + y = 9
y = 9 - 5
y = 4
solution is : (1,4)
=========================
-4x + 9y = 9
x - 3y = -6 ....multiply by 4
----------------
-4x + 9y = 9
4x - 12y = -24 (result of multiplying by 4)
---------------add
- 3y = - 15
y = -15/-3
y = 5
x - 3y = -6
x - 3(5) = -6
x - 15 = -6
x = -6 + 15
x = 9
solution is : (9,5)
So you’d add 5 and 3 so it’s 8 ft/s
You then divide 220/8
So it should be 27.5 seconds.
Sorry about that other guy. Hope this helps!

answer
-1</span>
Answer:
- 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
We use the slope-intercept form to figure out our slope.
y = mx + b
Get y alone:
x + 2y = -8
2y = -x - 8
y = -x/2 - 4
Since m is the slope in y = mx + b, we can see that -1/2 is in the place of m, therefore our slope is -1/2
