You would equal the equations together then solve for a variable.
-4x - 3 = -2x + 1
-4x + 2x = 1 + 3
-2x = 4
—— —-
-2 -2
x = -2
then take that x value and substitute it into any one of the equations.
Equation #1
y = -4(-2) -3
= 8 - 3
= 5
Equation #2
y = -2(-2) + 1
= 4 + 1
= 5
Answer:
-1.85 -7/8 1 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
It is about which one is to the farest right ▶️ from 0
The unit rate is the slope
y=mx+b
m=slope
b=y intercept
equation is y=7x
slope=7
y intercept=0
slope=unit rate because if you use 5 gasoline then you go 5 times 7 miles or 35 miles
The unit rate is 7
