4x+y=16 multiply both sides by -3 and will get
2x+3y=-2

-12x -3y = -48
2x +3y = -2
--------------------------
-10x 0 = -50

-10x = -50

x = -50/(-10) = 5

x = 5

4x+y=16
4*5+y=16
20+y=16

y = 16-20

y = -4

x = 5
y = - 4

hope helped

What is the equation of the line that passes through (-3, -1) and has a slope of 2/5 ? Put your answer in slope-intercept form.

Scrat [10]

Answer:

a. y = 2/5x + 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

In point-slope form, the equation of a line with slope m through point (h, k) can be written

y = m(x -h) +k

Then a line with slope 2/5 through the point (-3, -1) will have point-slope equation ...

y = (2/5)(x +3) -1

This can be simplified to the desired form:

y = 2/5x +6/5 -1 . . . . . . eliminate parentheses; next, collect terms

y = 2/5x + 1/5

HELPPPPPPPP how do you do this?

V125BC [204]

Solve for y like the top equation:
2y = -4ax + 11
2y/2 = -4ax/2 + 11/2
y = -2ax + 11/2
