Which of the following is a solution to the system of two equations y = 3x – 7 and 4x – 5y = -20?

x = 5, and y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve this system by solving either of the equations for either x or y, and substituting that into the other.

Since the first equation is already defined for y, let's substitute that into the second equation:

4x - 5y = -20

4x - 5(3x - 7) = -20

4x - 15x + 35 = -20

4x - 15x = -20 - 35

-11x = -55

x = 5

We can then plug that into either of the original equations to find y:

y = 3x - 7

y = 3 * 5 - 7

y = 15 - 7

y = 8

We can also verify our answer by plugging one of the values into either of the original equations and seeing what we get:

4x - 5y = -20

4x - 5 * 8 = -20

4x - 40 = -20

4x = 20

x = 5

So we know the answer is correct.  x is equal to five, and y is equal to eight.

i believe that the answer is

b. y-1=-2(x-4)

hope this !

d. corresponding side lengths in similar triangles are proportional in length.
