Answer:
Equation: x × -2 = y
Solution: y = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
if (x = 2) is (y = -4) then (x = 1) is (y = -2) so if (x = -6) is (y = 12) if we follow the equation [x × -2 = y] which was found using the first set of variables and dividing each by 2.

Answer: A) intersecting</h3>
-----------------------------------------------
Work Shown:
Solve the first equation for y
x+y = ab
y = -x+ab
y = -1x + ab
slope = -1, y intercept = ab
-----------
Solve for y in the second equation
bx - y = a
bx - y - a = 0
bx-a = y
y = bx - a
Slope = b, y intercept = -a
-----------
The first equation has a slope of -1. The second equation has a slope of b.
Since b cannot equal -1, this means the two equations have different slopes. It is impossible for these two lines to be parallel, because parallel lines have equal slopes. The different slope values tell us the lines cross at exactly one point.
Find two pefect lines that touches the middle then do rise over run and that will be your slope

Answer:
-4 1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
Many people find it easier to factor out -1, then do the addition. The fractions need a common denominator before they can be added. A suitable denominator that is a multiple of both 4 and 8 is 8.
The fraction 1/4 = (1/4)(2/2) = (1·2)/(4·2) = 2/8.
__
So, the problem can be rewritten as ...
-(1 7/8 +2 2/8)
= -((1+2) +(7/8 +2/8))
= -(3 +9/8)
The fraction 9/8 is an improper fraction equal to 8/8 +1/8 = 1 1/8. Then the sum is ...
-(3 +1 1/8) = -4 1/8
The answer to the first one is A, the second one is 3.58333
