Hope Helps!:)

The value of the coefficient b in the linear equation 5x +by =17 is -4

How to determine the equation solutions?

The pair of values are given as:

(x,y) = (-3,-8)

The equation is given as:

5x +by =17

Substitute values for x and y in the equation

-5 * 3 - 8 * b =17

Evaluate the product

-15 - 8b =17

Add 15 to both sides

-8b = 32

Divide both sides by -8

b = -4

Hence, the value of the coefficient b is -4
