(1,2)(4,-1)
slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
slope = (-1 - 2) / (4 - 1) = -3/3 = -1
the slope is -1......I am not sure of the mistake.....unless she just added (-1 - 2) and got 3 instead of -3.......or when dividing -3/3....she maybe forgot about the negative sign
5x - 2y = -6 ⇒ 10x - 4y = -12
2x - 1y = 1 ⇒ <u>10x - 5y = 5</u>
y = -17
5x - 2(-17) = -6
5x + 34 = -6
<u> - 34 - 34</u>
<u>5x</u> = <u>-40</u>
5 5
x = -8
(x, y) = (-8, -17)
2x + 3y = 432 ⇒ 10x + 15y = 2160
5x + 2y = 16 ⇒ <u>10x + 4y = 32</u>
<u>11y</u> = <u>2128</u>
11 11
y = 193.4545455
2x + 3(193.4545455) = 432
2x + 580.3636364 = 432
<u> - 580.3636364 - 580.3636364</u>
<u>2x</u> = <u>-148.3636364</u>
2 2
x = -74.1818182
(x, y) = (-74.1818184, 193.4545455)
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply $78 by by 65/100 to determine the original price.
78 can be put over 1.
<u>Multiply</u><u>:</u>

<u>Simplify by dividing the numerator and denominator by 100:</u>

The original price was $50.70.
Answer:
7 1/2y +2
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a triangle is base × height ÷2
base=8x+4 x=-4/8 x=-1/2
height=3x-4 x=4/3
A=b×h÷2
A=(-1/2×4/3)÷2
A=(-4/6)÷2
A=(-4/6)÷2/1 to divide by fractions flip the second and multiply
A=-4/6×1/2
A=-4/12
A=-1/3
