Answer:
x = - 2
y = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The best way to do this is to put - 3x in for y in the second equation.
4x - 2(-3x) = - 20 Watch the signs. You have 2 minus signs.
4x - - 6x = -20 Change - - 6x to 6x
4x + 6x = - 20 Add
10x = - 20 Divide by 10
x = -20/10
x = - 2
============================
Find y
y = - 3x
y = -3 * -2
y = 6
Remember PEMDAS (Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication, Divison, Addition and Subtraction)
Also note that Multiplication and Division needs to be done left to right and the same goes for Addition and Subtraction.
So in your problem, the first operation we need to do is division.
68 - (18/3) x 6
68 - 6 x 6
Now we do multiplication
68 - 6 x 6
68 - 36
Finally we do subtraction because that's the only operation we have left to do
68 - 36 = 32
So your answer should be 32.
Answer: bigger number is 48 and smaller number is 36

Answer:
When x=-1, y=3; when y=7, x=1; the y-intercept is 5; the x-intercept is 2.5; the slope is 2; the lines' equation is y=2x+5
Step-by-step explanation:
The first two answers can be easily interpreted by looking at the graph. For the next two, remember, the x-intercept is the point where the line touches the x-axis and the y-intercept is the point where the line touches the y-axis. For question e, the slope can be calculated by plugging the two coordinates from the first two questions, (-1,3) and (1,7), into the formula
or by using the graph to count the slope. The equation of the line is written in slope-intercept form, y=mx+b. Here, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. Plug in these values that you already found while answering the previous questions and you have the answer.
