It's increasing cause it's going higher if it's decreasing it's going lower

Solve the following using Substitution method
2x – 5y = -13
3x + 4y = 15


- To solve a pair of equations using substitution, first solve one of the equations for one of the variables. Then substitute the result for that variable in the other equation.

- Choose one of the equations and solve it for x by isolating x on the left-hand side of the equal sign. I'm choosing the 1st equation for now.

- Add 5y to both sides of the equation.


- Multiply
times 5y - 13.

- Substitute
for x in the other equation, 3x + 4y = 15.

- Multiply 3 times
.

- Add
to 4y.

- Add
to both sides of the equation.

- Divide both sides of the equation by 23/2, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.

- Substitute 3 for y in
. Because the resulting equation contains only one variable, you can solve for x directly.


- Add
to
by finding a common denominator and adding the numerators. Then reduce the fraction to its lowest terms if possible.

- The system is now solved. The value of x & y will be 1 & 3 respectively.

Rate of change between 1 and 3: find the y values for 1 and 3:
Rate of change = (6-1) / (3-1) = 5/2
Rate of change from 2 and 4:
= (10-3) / (4-2) = 7/2
The rate from 2 to 4 is larger because 7/2 is larger than 5/2
Because 4.7 is the "abbreviation" for 4.70 also 4.7 is the simplified version of 4.70 kind of like a fraction you 4 70/100 simplified is 4 7/10 or 4.7.
Answer:
125
Step-by-step explanation:
500 ÷ 4 = 125
I think this is the right answer. sorry if I'm wrong.
