(8y + 17) = (6x - 7)
(3x -29) + (6x -7) = 180
9x -36 = 180
9x = 216
x = 24
(8y + 17) = (6x - 7)
8y + 17 = 6(24) - 7
8y + 17 = 144 -7
8y = 120
y = 15
I hope this helps!! (and hope it’s correct hahah :))
A (solution) is a point of intersection. If the lines have different slopes then they will have one solution. If they have the same slope, then they will have either infinite or no solutions, depending on the y intercepts.
These equations have different slopes, therefore the system has 1 solution.
Kelvin did not skied without falling more than twice as long as anyone else in his family.
