Step-by-step explanation:
A slope of -3/5 means the line drops 3 units for each 5 units it goes to the right. Then you can find another point on the line by going 5 uints to the left (to x=-2) and 3 units up (to y=1).
Plot the given point and the one just computed and draw the line through them.
Answer: 6 x (18-9) = 54
Step-by-step explanation: 18-9 is 9 and 6 times 9 is 54
Let us say that the numbers are x and y. The given clues
are:
1. x – y = 16 (so
x is the larger number)
2. y / x = 5 / 7
rewriting eqtn 2 in terms of y:
y = (5/7) x
combining 1 and 2:
x – (5/7) x = 16
(2/7) x = 16
x = 56
y = (5/7) x = 40
So the two numbers are 56 and 40.
Substitute the x values back into the equation
(1, 22)
(2, 18)
(3, 14)
(6, 2)
