The ordered pairs (2, -17) and (5, -35) are solutions to which of the following equations? a y= -6x + 5 b y= 6x - 5 c y= 6x + 5 d y= -6x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:the answer to this problem is..

D.     y = -6x - 5

Lets check

 (2,-17)

Substituting y = -17 and x = 2 , we get,

-17 = -6 (2) -5

-17 = -12 - 5

-17 = -17

(5 , -35)

Substituting y = -35 and x = 5 , we get,

-35 = -6 (5) - 5

-35 = -30 - 5

-35 = -35

step-by-step explanation:

the multiplicative inverse of a fraction a/b is b/a. for the multiplicative inverse of a real number, divide 1 by the number. for example, the reciprocal of 5 is one fifth 1/5 or 0.2, and the reciprocal of 0.25 is 1 divided by 0.25, or 4.
