I answered the question 3x-y=5 but is there a different way to answer this?

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Yes (technically),  there is a different way to answer the equation 3x - y = 5. But, the first part of how you described it is a bit off.

Here is how you would explain it:

What you would do is Add y to both sides, then subtract 5 from both sides.

3x = y + 5

3x - 5 = y (aka y  = 3x - 5)

The other way to solve:

3x - y = 5

Subtract 3x from both sides.

-y = -3x + 5

Now divide both sides by -1.

-1(-y) = -1(-3x + 5)

y = 3x - 5

If you want to solve for x, you would:

Add y to both sides of the equation.

3x = 5 + y

Then divide each side by 3.

x = \frac{1}{3}y + \frac{5}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi,

I agree with what you did. You could also add y on both sides and get 3x = y + 5 and then divided by three to get...

x = 5 + y /3

(the 5 and y are being divided by 3)

But that's just complicated, it works, but it's complicated. What you did is correct and what I gave you is the value of x, but I'm 100 percent sure yours is correct.

Hope this helps

Type the correct answer in the box. Use numerals instead of words.
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

A line that passes through the point (x,y), with a y-intercept of b and a slope of m, can be represented by the equation y = mx + b.

If a line has the slope of -0.5, then m=-0.5 and the equation of the line is

y=-0.5x+b

This line passes throughthe point (10,1), then the coordinates of this point satisfy the equation of the line:

1=-0.5\cdot 10+b\\ \\1=-5+b\\ \\b=1+5\\ \\b=6

and the equation of the line is

y=-0.5x+6

Since b=6, the y-intercept of the line is 6.

Solve the equation?
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

p² + 2p - 8 = 0 ← in standard form

with a = 1, b = 2, c = - 8

Using the quadratic formula to solve for p

p = ( - 2 ± \sqrt{2^2-(4(1)(-8))} / 2

  = ( - 2 ± \sqrt{4+32} / 2

  = ( - 2 ± \sqrt{36} ) / 2

p = \frac{-2-6}{2} = \frac{-8}{2} = - 4

p = \frac{-2+6}{2} = \frac{4}{2} = 2
