5x - 2 = 13
5x = 13 + 2
5x = 15 (divide both sides by 5 to get x)
5x/5 = 15/5
x = 3
Answer:
"a" must be negative
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope between points (-1, 1) and (1, -1) is a minimum of (-1-1)/(1-(-1)) = -1.
The slope between points (1, -1 and (3, -4) is a maximum of (-4-(-1))/(3-1) = -3/2.
Thus, as x increases, the slope is decreasing. In order for that to be the case, the value of <em>a</em> must satisfy a < 0.
Add both the equations together to eliminate x
x+5y=8
-x+2y=-1
7y=7
y=1
Now fill in y into the original equation
x+5(1)=8
x+5=8
x=3
Now you can check by filling x and y into the second equation.
-(3)+2(1)=-1
-3+2=-1
-1=-1
So your answer will be (3, 1)

Answer:
False
Step-by-step explanation:
the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )
here m = -
, hence
y = -
x + c ← is the partial equation
to find c substitute (- 3, 5) into the partial equation
5 =
+ c ⇒ c = 
y = -
x +
← equation of line
Your friend asked you to bring a couple of bags of chips to his party. there are several brands of chips, each a different size and price. Write a formula that will help you find the price per gram for each bag.
x= price of bag of chips
y= number of grams
z=price per gram
