Question

Convert the equations in the system below into slope-intercept form and then classify the system.

-12-2-7-y = -2
-24-2-14-y = -4
In slope-intercept form, the first equation is y=
In slope-intercept form, the second equation is y=

Answer 1

y = -19

y = -36

Explanation:

1) -12-2-7-y = -2

-14-7 - y = -2

- 21 - y + 21 = -2 +21

-y ÷ -1 = 19 ÷ -1

y = - 19

-24 - 2- 14 - y = -4

-26 - 14 - y = -4

-40 - y +40 = -4 + 40

-y ÷ -1= 36 ÷ -1

y = -36
