Answer: x = -1 and y = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
So if you know y = x-1 you can plug that in where y is in the first equation
-4x + 3(x-1) = -2
Distribute the 3:
-4x +3x -3 = -2
Combine like terms:
-x -3 = -2
Add 3 to both sides:
-x = 1
Multiply by -1:
X = -1
Then you plug that into the other equation to get y=(-1)-1
Which is -2
Answer:
49 percent
Step-by-step explanation:
So convert the fraction into a percentage
245/500= 49%
Point slope is y-y1=m(x-x1)
Keep y and x as they are (do not plug anything in for those).
Variable m is the slope.
x1 and y1 are part of the point, which is in (x, y) form.
With the information given, plug each into the equation.
m= 2 (It's the slope)
x1=-8
y1=5
Put these variables into the equation like this-
y-5=2(x--8)
The two negatives cancel out (between x and 8) so your final answer is-
y-5=2(x+8)
Answer:
{-1.7, 3.5}
Step-by-step explanation:
I find it convenient to graph the difference of the two sides of the equation. That difference is zero when the equation is satisfied. This equation has two solutions, near x = -1.7 and x = 3.5.
