Answer:

x = -4; y = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 5y = 7

3x - y = -9

Rewrite top equation. Multiply both sides of bottom equation by -5. Add equations. This eliminates y, and we solve for x.

         2x - 5y = 7

(+)   -15x + 5y = 45

----------------------------

      -13x         = 52

Divide both sides by -13.

x = -4

Substitute -4 for x in the first original equation and solve for y.

2x - 5y = 7

2(-4) - 5y = 7

-8 - 5y = 7

-5y = 15

y = -3

Answer: x = -4; y = -3

-5 =

What is the equation of the line that passes through (-3, -1) and has a slope of 3/5 ? Put your answer in slope-intercept form.
Verizon [17]

Slope-intercept form: y = mx + b

m = the slope

b = y-intercept.

In this problem,

m = 3/5

b = ?

So far y = 3/5x + b

Let's plug the point (-3, -1) into our slope equation.

-1 = 3/5(-3) + b

Simplify the right side.

-1 = -9/5 + b

Add 9/5 to both sides.

4/5 = b

The equation is: y = 3/5x + 4/5

Answer choice A is correct.

Fine the area of a parallelogram with base b and height h.<br> b = 82 cm<br> h = 16.6 cm
Alona [7]
I just added an answer to a question exactly like that. The answer would be 1, 361.2. To find area you need to multiply the base and height together. Just think, b*h=a. Base times height equals area. Good luck!
