Step-by-step explanation:
x = number of multiple choice questions
y = number of short response questions
x + y = 15
5x + 10y = 100
=>
x + 2y = 20
let's subtract the first from the second equation :
x + 2y = 20
- x + y = 15
--------------------
0 y = 5
x + y = 15
x + 5 = 15
x = 10
to graph you need to consider both equations as linear functions. and you need to transform them into e.g. a slope intercept form : y = ax + b
a is the slope, b is the y- intercept.
x + y = 15
transforms to
y = -x + 15
this line goes e.g. through the points (0, 15) and (1, 14).
and
x + 2y = 20
transforms to
2y = -x + 20
y = -x/2 + 10
this line goes e.g through (0, 10) and (2, 9).
the crossing point of both lines is the solution and should therefore be the point (10, 5) as calculated above.

i found the box
Fraction = 21/8
decimal = 2.625
mixed number form = 2 5/8
Answer:
y = -14/3x + 43/3
Step-by-step explanation:
y2 - y1 / x2 - x1
5 - (-9) / 2 - 5
14 / -3
- 14/3
y = -14/3x + b
5 = -14/3(2) + b
5 = -28/3 + b
43/3 = b
y = -14/3x + 43/3
