So, since both equate to y, we can solve for x by equating the equations to each other.
4x - 5 = -3
So: 4x = 2
So: x = 1/2, or 0.5
Now, y = -3, so the solution is (0.5, -3)
You can graph the two equations, and the point where they meet will be (0.5, -3).
Hello.
Firstly, let's isolate x on the equation:

Now, we can replace 'x' for 'y' and vice-versa:

Hope I helped.

Answer:</h2>
Option: D is the correct answer.
D: 18, because the number of catalogs is 72 over 5 divided by 4 over 5.
<h2>
Step-by-step explanation:</h2>
Let Freddy could arrange n catalogs on the shelf.
The dimension of the shelf is:
72 over 5 inches wide.
The dimension of the catalog is:
4 over 5 of an inch thick.
n × Dimension of one catalog=Dimension of shelf.
i.e.
n×(4 over 5 inches)=72 over 5 inches
i.e.
n=72 over 5 inches/ 4 over 5 inches
i.e.
n=72/4
i.e.
n=18
Hence, Freddy could arrange 18 books in the shelf.
