Solve the system by the elimination method. -2x + y + 6 = 0 2x + y - 8 = 0 When you eliminate x, the resulting equation is 2y = 2.
-2x + y + 6 + 2x + y - 8 = 0;
2y - 2 = 0;
2y = 2

The equation of a line given the point and slope below. Arrange your answer in the form y = mx + b, where b is the constant. (-6, 1) m = 6,the equation is y = 6x + 37.
y - 1 = 6(x + 6);
y = 6x + 36 + 1;
y = 6x + 37

The equation of a line with the given points. (Put your answers in the form y = mx + b.) (7, 2) (4, 8),the equation is y = -2x + 16.
slope = (8 - 2)/(4 - 7) = -2;
y - 2 = -2(x - 7);
y = -2x + 14 + 2
y = -2x + 16

Solve the system by the elimination method. 2x + 3y - 10 = 0 4x - 3y - 2 = 0 When you eliminate y,the resulting equation is 6x = 12.
2x + 3y - 10 + 4x - 3y - 10 - 2 = 0;
6x - 12 = 0;
6x = 12

One number is twice another number and their sum is 36. x + y = 36 and y = 2x represents the word problem.
Let the smaller number be x,larger number be y;
y = 2x
x + y = 36
