Answer:
(2,-3)
Step-by-step explanation:
I am not sure if you meant the first equation to be y or -y. I solved it as y.
y = x-5 -x -3y =7
I am going to take the second equation and write it as x =
-x - 3y = 7 Give equation
-x = 3y +7 Add 3y to both sides
x = -3y-7 Multiplied each term in the equation by -1 so that x could be positive
I am going to substitute -3y-7 for x in the first equation up above
y = x - 5
y = -3y -7 - 5 Substitute -3y-7 for x
y = -3y -12 Combined -7-5
4y = -12 Added 3y to both sides
y = -3 Divided both sides by 4.
I now know that y is -3, I will plug that into x = -3y-7 to solve for x
x = -3(-3) -7
x = 9-7 A negative times a negative is a positive
x = 2
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
This is called percentage decrease:
(100 - 72)% = 28%
246.40 × 28/100
= $68.99
Answer:
False
Step-by-step explanation:
Each f(x) increases by 8 therefore this equation is a linear function. If you where to graph it would be a straight line
Hope this helped :)

I'm sorry if I misunderstood.
Good luck mate! :)

Remember to try your best every day!
The trick is to write appropriate equations and then solve the system of equations you've created.
"sum of two numbers is -5:" x + y = -5
"difference is -1:" x-y = -1
Add these two equations together. This will cause y to drop out, and you will be left with an equation in x alone:
2x = - 6, so x = -3. Subst. -3 for x in either equation, above, and find the corresponding y value.
Then write your solution as (-3, y ) (write in your value for y).
