First find either x or y
OpenStudy (anonymous):
5x+2y=-1
-5x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
2y=-5x-1
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Divide by 2: y=-5/2x-1/2

so...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
u have answer choices? it says choose
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Is this system of equations? Should be 2 equations
OpenStudy (anonymous):
hmm
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yea

5x - 2y = -1
x + 4y = 35?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
That makes sense then. those 2?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
A.
(2, –4)
B.
(–1, 4)
C.
(–2, 5)
D.
(1, –3)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
not quite
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok then... i guess u just plug in the points

wat u mean?, :/
OpenStudy (anonymous):
A. (2, –4)
B. (–1, 4)
C. (–2, 5)
D. (1, –3)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
let me show u
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok
OpenStudy (anonymous):
5x+2y=-1
Try A
5(2)+2(-4)=-1
10-8=-1
This is not the answer

Try B
OpenStudy (anonymous):
5x+2y=-1
Try A
5(-1)+2(4)=-1
-5+8=-3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Not the answer either
OpenStudy (anonymous):
nope
OpenStudy (anonymous):
5x+2y=-1
5(-2)+2(5)=-1
-10+10=0
Nope
D (1,-3)
5x+2y=-1
5(1)+2(-3)=-1
5-6=-1
The correct answer is D

What is the slope of the graph of 14x + 7y = –9?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
A.
B.
C.
D.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
U just need to put it in slope intercept form (y=mx+b)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
A. -2
B.- 1/2
C. 1/2
D. 2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
14x + 7y = –9
-14x
7y=-14x-9
Divide by 7
y=-2x-9/7
m is the slope so

U know the answer...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no @Haiqa
OpenStudy (anonymous):
A. -2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
how?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Sorry bout that

OpenStudy (anonymous):
y=-2x-9/7 is the equation. remember slope-intercept form id y=mx+b
OpenStudy (anonymous):
-2 is in the place of m, i.e the slope
OpenStudy (anonymous):
That help?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh
OpenStudy (anonymous):
wat about this one
