2x+4y=0
3x+y=10
So what we want to do is get y onto one side by itself using whatever equation you like.
So I'm taking 2x+4y=0 and subtracting 4y from both sides
So we end up with
2x=4y
Divide both sides by four
2/4x is 1/2 x
So we get 1/2x=y
Take this and plug it into the other equation
3x+y=10
3x+1/2x=10
Add your like terms
3 1/2x=10
Putting 3 1/2 as a mixed number we get 7/2
So..
7/2x=10
Multiply by the opposite of 7/2 on both sides
Which is 2/7 this will cancel out the left side.
So we end up with
X= 10•2/7
X=20/7
Which is 2 and 6/7 as a mixed number.
The slope of the first equation would be -5/2 because
2y=-5x+8
y=-5x/2+4
The y intercept of the 2nd equation is when x=0, so -7y=10
y=-10/7
The equation of the line would be y=-5x/2-10/7
Or in standard form....
5x/2+y=-10/7
5x+27=-20/7

Answer:
9 students on the committee are males
Step-by-step explanation:
As per the statement:
There are 15 students on a yearbook committee.
⇒Total students on a yearbook committee = 15
⇒
....[1]
It is given that:
40% of the students are females
⇒
Substitute in [1] we have;
Subtract 6 from both sides we have;
Therefore, 9 students on the committee are males
You need the starting point and the end point and count how long it took to get to one point to the either
