X = games won
y = games lost
x + y = 72
x = 2y + 15
2y + 15 + y = 72
3y + 15 = 72
3y = 72 - 15
3y = 57
y = 57/3
y = 19 <=== lost games
x = 2y + 15
x = 2(19) + 15
x = 53 <=== won games
You would move over the -2 making the equation look like this 4x>3x+7. Then move the 3x to the other side of the equation making it look like this 1x>7. Thus the answer is x>7.
Y-2=-3/2(x-2)
first of all, the slope of the line is -3/2, and there's only one equation that has that as a choice for the slope. Then you can take the x and y coordinates given in that equation you want to check and see if the line goes through that point. from the equation, (point-slope form y-y=m(x-x)) I know that the line should pass through point (2, -2), and looking at the graph, that is correct.
Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance between two points is = √(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²
x1 = -5, y1 = 4; x2 = 7, y2 = -5
|PQ| = √(7 - (-5))² + (-5 - 4)²
|PQ| = √(7 + 5)² + (-9)²
|PQ| = √(12)² + 81
|PQ| = √144 + 81
|PQ| = √225
|PQ| = 15
