Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
5x + y = 21 → (1)
x - 3y = 9 → (2)
Multiply (1) by 3 and add the result to (2) to eliminate y term
15x + 3y = 63 → (3)
Add (2) and (3) term by term
(x + 15x) + )- 3y + 3y) = (9 + 63)
16x = 72 ( divide both sides by 16 )
x = 4.5
Substitute x = 4.5 into (1) for corresponding value of y
22.5 + y = 21 ( subtract 22.5 from both sides )
y = - 1.5
Solution is (4.5, - 1.5 )
The options are wrong lol, it is -1/8
To write an equation you need a slop and y intercept. To find the slop use the formula y2-y1 /x2-x1. and for the y intercept use the formula y=mx+b
