Solve the following pair of equations for x and y: ax/b_ by /a= a +b; ax - by = 2ab

If a line is defined by the equation y = 5x + 2, what is the slope?

Without multiplying, tell which product is larger and why. 5 × 1/3 or 5 × 2/3 a)5 × 1/3 because 1/3 is less than 2/3 b) 5 × 1/3 because 1/3 is greater than 2/3 c) 5 × 2/3 because 1/3 is less than 23 d) 5 × 23 because 1/3 is greater than 2/3
