How do I solve this using substitution method y=-5x-17 x+y=-1

x=-4,y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

 -------------------- (1)

------------------------(2)

Substituting the value of y from (1) in (2):

Simplifying,

Substituting the value of x in (1):

The required solution is x=-4,y=3

step-by-step explanation:

b. 6

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the table representing an exponential function.

we can see from the table that, as x is increasing, the value of y is increasing in the power of 6.

i.e. the following relation is obtained,

x = 1, y = 6

x = 2, y = 36 =

x = 3, y = 216 =

x = 4, y = 1296 =

x = 5, y = 7776 =

so, the geometric series obtained is .

thus, the common ratio is given by = = 6.

hence, the common ratio is 6.
