Explanation:
true sry I was thinking of my answer too
Answer:
4/3
Explanation:
For xy-plane coordinates, points are written as (x, y).
This question gives us two points and two line equations to solve this. Let's start with the first one.
Since p is the x value of the point and r is the y value of the point, we can place these values in our equation y = x + b as follows:
r = p + b
Now we do the same with our second point and line equation. We will substitute 2p for x and 5r for y in the equation y = 2x + b. So we get this:
5r = 2(2p) + b
5r = 4p + b
Since we have this two equations with the same two variables, now we can solve them using the elimination method.
In this case I eliminated b as it is constant in both equations. To do this I subtract the equations in order to cancel the b variable.
5r = 4p + b
r = p + b
_______ -
5r - r = 4p + b - p - b
4r = 3p
4/3 = p/r
