Answer:

x = 2 and y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

-4x + y = -5 -------------------(I)

y = 4x - 5 ------------(II)

2x + y = 7 -------------------(III)

Substitute y = 4x - 5 in equation (III)

2x + 4x - 5 = 7

6x - 5 = 7

Add 5 to both sides

6x = 7 + 5

6x = 12

Divide both sides by 6

x = 12/6

x = 2

Plugin x = 2 in (II)

y = 4*2 - 5

y = 8 -5

y = 3

Given the formula y = -1/2x - 4, what is the slope and y-intercept of the graph? PLEASE HELP!

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

the slope is -1/2 and the y-intercept is -4

Step-by-step explanation:

The original formula is y=mx+b. m is the slope of the graph and b is the y-intercept. You just plug in the numbers to the original formula to get the formula for the graph. The slope is always the number that is right next to the x, or the number which is multiplied by the x. The y-intercept is always the number that is not by x.

Write an expression for the lengths of the rectangle in terms

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

l = A/w

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'A' equal area. If the formula for the area of a rectangle is A = lw, you need to get 'h' alone. Divide 'h' by 'l' and by V to get the answer, l = A/w.

Identify the slope of the line for the equation y= -2/3× + 1/3

natita [175]

Answer:

$\textbf{The slope of the parallel line is given by $ \frac{-2}{3} $}\\$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\textup{The slope of any two parallel lines are equal and they only differ in their $y- intercepts$. }\\\textup{Given $y = \frac{-2}{3}x + \frac{1}{3} $}\\\textup{This is comparable to $y = mx + c$, where $m$ is the slope of that line.}\\\textup{Therefore, the slope of the given line and any line parallel to it is $ \frac{-2}{3}$.}$
