  1. y = -2

    x = 3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Solve using elimination

    1. Rearrange the equations to make it easier to solve

    y = -3x + 7 → 3x + y = 7

    y = 2x - 8 → 2x - y = 8

    2. Multiply the equations to have a matching coefficient

    2(3x + y = 7) = 6x + 2y = 14

    3(2x - y = 8) = 6x - 3y = 24

    3. Subtract

     6x + 2y = 14

    - 6x - 3y = 24

      0 + 5y = -10

    4. Solve for y

    5y = -10

    y = -2

    5. Substitute y in any equation to solve for x

    -2 = -3x + 7

    -3x = -9

    x = 3

  2. x = 3, y = -2

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Since y=y

    then, -3x +7 = 2x-8

    7+8 = 3x+2x

    15 = 5x

    x=3

    substitute

    y = 2(3) - 8

    y = -2

    Hope that helped!!! k

  3. 1) y = -8/5x + 8

    2) slope = -3

    3) x = 4

    4) x ≥ 22/3

    5) x = 21/16

    6) x = 12

    Step-by-step explanation:

    1) For the slope, you know you go up 8 left 5 to get from the x-intercept to your y-intercept so it’s positive 8 over -5 (rise over run).

    This makes your slope 8/-5 which is the same as -8/5

    2) The slope is next to the x, so the slope is -3/1 which is -3.

    3) Rearrange the equation to y = mx + b.

    Firstly, subtract 6x from both sides:

    -3y = -6x + 24

    Then, divide both sides by -3:

    y = 2x - 8

    To get the x-intercept, divide the y-intercept (but positive) by the slope.

    8/2 = 4

    Your x-intercept is 4.

    4) Distribute on the terms:

    -53 ≥ -9x - 9 + 3x

    Combine like terms:

    -53 ≥ -6x - 9

    Add 9 to both sides:

    -44 ≥ -6x

    Divide both sides by -6:

    44/6 ≤ x

    (Inequality flipped because you divide by a negative)

    Simplify:

    22/3 ≤ x

    Flip the inequality:

    x ≥ 22/3

    5) Multiply both sides by 4:

    3x - x/3 = 7/2

    Multiply both sides by 3:

    9x - x = 21/2

    Combine like terms:

    8x = 21/2

    Divide both sides by 8:

    x = 21/16

    or

    x = 1.3125

    6) Combine like terms:

    7x + 6 = 90

    Subtract 6 from both sides:

    7x = 84

    Divide both sides by 7:

    x = 12

    Hope this helps!

  4. (4, -5)

    Step-by-step explanation:

    we know that

    If a ordered pair lie on the line, then the ordered pair must satisfy the equation of the line

    we have

    [tex]y=-3x+7[/tex]

    Verify each ordered pair

    case 1) (4, -5)

    substitute the value of x and the value of y in the linear equation and then compare the results

    [tex]-5=-3(4)+7[/tex]

    [tex]-5=-5[/tex] ---> is true

    so

    The ordered pair satisfy the linear equation

    therefore'

    The ordered pair lie on the line

    case 2) (4, 19)

    substitute the value of x and the value of y in the linear equation and then compare the results

    [tex]19=-3(4)+7[/tex]

    [tex]19=-5[/tex] ---> is not true

    so

    The ordered pair not satisfy the linear equation

    therefore'

    The ordered pair not lie on the line

    case 3) (1,5)

    substitute the value of x and the value of y in the linear equation and then compare the results

    [tex]5=-3(1)+7[/tex]

    [tex]5=4[/tex] ---> is not true

    so

    The ordered pair not satisfy the linear equation

    therefore'

    The ordered pair not lie on the line

    case 4) (1,-19)

    substitute the value of x and the value of y in the linear equation and then compare the results

    [tex]-19=-3(1)+7[/tex]

    [tex]-19=4[/tex] ---> is not true

    so

    The ordered pair not satisfy the linear equation

    therefore'

    The ordered pair not lie on the line

  5. 1/3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Perpendicular lines have a slope that is the opposite reciprocal of the original line slope. To find it, first flip the fraction (-3 to -1/3). Then, add/get rid of the negative sign based on if it was there in the first place (-1/3 to 1/3). Thus, the slope would be 1/3.

    Hope this helped 🙂

  6. -3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    the coefficient of the x term is the slope in any equation that is in slope intercept form

  7. The equation that represents the other equation is [tex]y=\dfrac{1}{3}x+5[/tex] .

    The solution of the system is (3,6).

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Linear equation: [tex]y=mx+c[/tex]  , where m= slope

    c = y-intercept.

    In the first table, the y-intercept = 5     [ y-intercept = value of y at x=0.

    Slope for first table  = [tex]\dfrac{y_2-y_2}{x_2-x_1}=\dfrac{6-5}{3-0}=\dfrac{1}{3}[/tex]

    The equation that represents the first table:

    [tex]y=\dfrac{1}{3}x+5[/tex]

    So, the equation that represents the other equation is [tex]y=\dfrac{1}{3}x+5[/tex] .

    Also, the solution of the system is the common point (x,y) that satisfy both equations in the system.

    Here, x=3 and y=6 is the common value in both tables.

    So, the solution of the system is (3,6).
