Answer:
slope=.083
c=4
h=-0.333..
Step-by-step explanation:
Well first you substitute -3 for y and then subtract 12 from both sides of the equation and it should look like -15=-3x. Then divide 3 on both sides and you should end up getting 5=x.
<span><span>DO use multiplication sign '*' (the STAR) symbol. For the simplifier, xy is NOT the same as x*y or yx. Simplifier thinks that xy is a separate variable. Good example: x*y-y*(x+2). Bad example: xy-y(x+2).</span>DO use '*' when multiplying a variable by an expression in parentheses: x*(x+2). Otherwise, my simplifier will think that you are trying to use a function and will become confused.Use parentheses liberally to avoid any ambiguity. (x+y)/(x-y) is NOT the same as x+y/x-y. x+y/x-y means x+(y/x)-y.</span>Operations<span>Use '*' (STAR) for multiplication. 2*3 is legal, 2x3 will be misunderstood.Use '^' (CARET) for power. 2^3 means 2 to degree of 3, or 8.Use '/' (FORWARD SLASH) for divisionOnly '(' and ')' (parentheses) are allowed for grouping terms. Curly or square brackets are used for other purposes.</span>
Operation priority: + and - have lowest priority, * and / h
Good Examplesx*y-x*(y+2) <-- '*' is used for multiplications
a^b*3 <-- means (a to the degree of b) multiplied by 3
Bad examples<span>xy-yx <-- variable xy and variable yx are different variables
y(x-2) <-- simplifier will think that it is function y of x-2.</span>

Rx - sx + y = b
WHEN SOLVING FOR X :
rx - sx + y = b
We must get x onto it's own side, so subtract y from both side.s
rx - sx = b - y
Then, factor out x.
x(r - s) = b - y
Then, divide both sides by (r - s).
x(r - s) ÷ (r - s) = b - y ÷ (r - s)
Simplify.
x = b - y / r - s →

WHEN SOLVING FOR Y :
rx - sx + y = b
We need to isolate y, so get rid of everything BUT y on the left side.
Subtract rx from both sides.
-sx + y = b - rx
Then, add sx to both sides.
y = b - rx + sx
