Answer: x = -1 and y = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
So if you know y = x-1 you can plug that in where y is in the first equation
-4x + 3(x-1) = -2
Distribute the 3:
-4x +3x -3 = -2
Combine like terms:
-x -3 = -2
Add 3 to both sides:
-x = 1
Multiply by -1:
X = -1
Then you plug that into the other equation to get y=(-1)-1
Which is -2
Y=5x - 3
Because the difference in the y values are 5, the rise is 5. That is the TOP of the slope. The difference in the x values is 1, that is the run or the BOTTOM of the slope. So m = 5/1.
Using y = mx + b
2 = 5(1) + b
-3 = b
Therefore, y = 5x -3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I think it’s b correct me if I’m wrong
Step-by-step explanation:
x + y = 3 ---------------- eqn 1
y = -6x + 3 ------------- eqn 2
Substitute y for -6x + 3 in equation 1
x + -6x + 3 = 3
x - 6x + 3 = 3
-5x + 3 = 3
Collect like terms
-5x = 3 - 3
-5x = 0
Divide both sides by -5
x = 0
Hope this helped!
