X=3; you can set up a proportion using the slope equation. So (y[sub2]-y[sub1])/(x[sub2]-x[sub1])=2/1 then plug in the values and simplify. Then cross multiply and solve for x. Rest of work shown in the picture
Answer: 14/15
This is because to get to 14/15 you must divide by 6 but when getting to 42/45 you must divide 2. Therefore 14/15 is your answer because the problem went to the most reduced fraction.
-10x-10 = -3x+4
+3x +3x
————————
-7x-10 = 4
+10 +10
————————
-7x = 14
then divide -7 on both side of the equal sign
you’ll get x=-2
then plug in -2 as x into one of the equations ( it doesn’t matter which one)
y= -10(-2)-10 = 20-10= 10
so y=10
Answer to the nearest tenth is 20.8
