If NO = 17 and NP = 5x -6, find the value of x. Then find NO and OP.

Well lets assume that NO = NP. If this is the case then 17 = 5x - 6. We then want to solve for x. So add 6 to each side, this equals 23 = 5x. I do not know if it is suppose to be a decimal, but I will do it anyway. Divide 23 by 5 which is 4.6. So x = 4.6. Now plug this into x. So NO = 17 and NP = 17. This is the only way I see possible to solve this problem. Let me know if it was correct please.

C = 8x + 5y
-5y + c = 8x
-5y = -c + 8x
y = c - 8x / 5

Answer:

3.) 63=3x+7y

4.) Y-intercept is 9

Step-by-step explanation:

(For 3) For every time a person gets a touchdown, x represents that

for every time a person person scored a successful extra-point attempt, y represents that.

And they team scores 63, so....

the equation would look like this

63=3x+7y

(For 4) You find the y-intercept by turning the standard form equatio into the slop intercept form

$(-3x)63=3x+7y (-3x)\\(\frac{1}{7}) 7y=(-3x+63)(\frac{1}{7} )\\y=-\frac{3x}{7} +9$

(Helper's note, multiplying by its reciprocal is the same as dividing it by a whole number, in the case dividing the number by 7 is the save as multiplying the number by $\frac{1}{7}$ )
