Step-by-step explanation I counted the numbers.
Answer:
option D
D. x = 5, y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given in the question two equation,
Equation 1
5.3x + y = 28.5
Equation 2
4.2x + 3.1y = 27.2
rearrange equation 1 in terms of y
y = 28.5 - 5.3x
Substitute the value of y in equation 2
<h3>4.2x + 3.1(28.5 - 5.3x) = 27.2</h3>
4.2x + 88.35 - 16.43x = 27.2
4.2x - 16.43x = 27.2 - 88.35
-12.23x = -61.15
x = 61.15/12.23
x = 5
put value of x in any of the equation
<h3>5.3(5) + y = 28.5</h3>
y = 28.5 - 26.5
y = 2
The slope-intercept form:

m - slope
b - y-intercept
The formula of a slope:

We have two points (2, 0) and (-2, -4). Substitute:

Therefore we have the equation of a line

Put the coordinates of the point (2, 0) to the equation:
<em>subtract 2 from both sides</em>
