X=2. You use substitution to put the y=3x-5 into 6x+3y=15.
So you get 6x+3(3x-5)=15
=6x+9x-15=15
add 15 on both sides to get the x's alone and add the x's together.
6+9=15 -- 15+15=30
15x=30
30/15 =2
x=2
The m in y=mx+b stands for the slope of the line

Hi Kay, the point-slope form of a line is given by: y - y1 = m(x - x1). Substituting the given point, (6, -8), and the slope, -2, gives: y - (-8) = -2 * (x - 6) This becomes: y + 8 = -2x + 12
