6x - 12 = 3x + 15 3x = 27 x = 9
Points: (8, 8) and (1, 2) Slope: (8-2)/(8-1) = 6/7 Equation: y-8 = 6/7(x-8) => 7y-56 = 6x-48 => 7y = 6x-48+56 Slope intercept form: 7y = 6x+8
x+7y=16 ---------------------------1 3x- 7y=4 ---------------------------2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1+2 x+7y=16 3x-7y=4 4x=20 x=5 substitute x = 5 in x+7y=16 (5)+7y=16 7y=11 y=11/7
2x-7y=14 2x-14=7y from this equation the slope is 2/7
