What is the solution to the system of equations? y = –5x + 3 y = 1

Ok so we know that y=1 so we can simply sub in the value of y into the equation :

y = -5x +3

1 = -5x +3

Move the -5x to the LHS ( Left-hand-side ) therefore it changes sign as well move 1 to the RHS ( Right-hand-side ) it also changes sign.

5x = 3 - 1

5x = 2

x = 2/5

x = 0.4

Hope this helps :).

Y=-5x+3

y=1
Replacing for the first equation;
1=-5x+3
-5x=-2
x= $\frac{2}{5}$
x=0.4

C. y = 1/2x - 2

<u>Use the slope-intercept form to find the slope and y-intercept</u>

Slope: 1/2

HELP When 2((Three-fifths x + 2 and three-fourths y minus one-fourth x minus 1 and one-half y + 3)) is simplified, what is the r

Answer:

<h2> StartFraction 7 over 10 EndFraction x + 2 and one-half y + 6</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression $2(\frac{3x}{5}+2\frac{3y}{4}-\frac{x}{4}-1 \frac{1}{2}y+3)$

To simplify the expression, we need to first collect the like terms of the functions in parentheses as shown;

$= 2(\frac{3x}{5}-\frac{x}{4}-1 \frac{1}{2}y+2\frac{3}{4}y+3)\\= 2(\frac{3x}{5}-\frac{x}{4}- \frac{3}{2}y+\frac{11}{4}y+3)\\$

Then we find the LCM of the resulting function

$= 2(\frac{3x}{5}-\frac{x}{4}- \frac{3}{2}y+\frac{11}{4}y+3)\\= 2(\frac{12x-5x}{20} - (\frac{6y-11y}{4})+3)\\= 2(\frac{7x}{20}- (\frac{-5y}{4})+3 )\\= 2(\frac{7x}{20}+ \frac{5y}{4}+3 )\\= \frac{7x}{10} + \frac{5y}{2} +6\\= \frac{7x}{10} + 2\frac{1}{2}y+6\\$
