From the first equation,
x+5 = 3(y+5)
x = 3y + 15 - 5
Now substitue x in the second equation with (3y +15 - 5).
x-5 = 7(y-5)
(3y+15-5) - 5 = 7(y-5)
3y +5 = 7y - 35
-4y = - 40
y = 10
Since y is 10, and x is (3y +15 - 5),
x = 30 + 15 - 5 = 40

Explanation:
We can find the slope by solving for y.
3x +2y +7 = 5x +3y +10
-2x -3 = y . . . . . . . . . . . . . add -5x-10-2y to both sides of the equation
In this form, the slope (m) is the coefficient of x, -2. Hence m = -2.

<em>Alternate solution</em>
A graph of the equation shows it has an x-intercept of -1.5 and a y-intercept of -3. The slope (m) is then "rise" divided by "run", or ...
m = rise/run = -3/1.5
m = -2
Answer:
y = -3/2x + 5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Point: (5, -5)
Parallel to: y = -3/2x + 2
Slope= -3/2 (parallel lines have the same slope)
y-intercept = -5 - (-3/2)(5) (y - slope times x) =
-5 + 15/2 = 5/2

The answer for this problem is
C) y = -x + 6
Step-by-step explanation:
I know this because I just did the test
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the results for the standardized test are normally distributed, we would apply the formula for normal distribution which is expressed as
z = (x - µ)/σ
Where
x = test reults
µ = mean score
σ = standard deviation
From the information given,
µ = 1700 points
σ = 75 points
We want to the probability that a student will score more than 1700 points. This is expressed as
P(x > 1700) = 1 - P(x ≤ 1700)
For x = 1700,
z = (1700 - 1700)/75 = 0/75 = 0
Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.5
P(x > 1700) = 1 - 0.5 = 0.5
