So we know the slope has to be -3 and the y intercept is 2. y intercept looks like (0,2). since we know this we automatically can rule out B since it has (0,0).
let’s find the slope of A
-9- -5
-3- - 1
the slope= -4/-2= 2
we know it’s not A because the slope is not -3
let’s find the slope of C
-17- -8
-5- -2
slope= -9/-3=3
we know it’s not C because the slope is not -3. we could directly assume that D is the answer no but we’ll still find the slope just to be sure
let’s find the slope of D
14-8
-4- -2
slope=6/-2= -3
the answer is D!!
Nahhhh
So basically WHERE DID THE x COME FROM anyway ???
5 * 7 = 35
but
IT DOES NOT EQUAL TO
57x
It might be true depending on what the x value is, but you dont know what the x value is so ...
Two fractions are equivalent if the product of the numerator of the first and the denominator of the second is equal to the product of the numerator of the second and the denominator of the first.
4 x 2 ___ 16 x 0.25
8 is not equal to 4
Thus, they are not equivalent.
4-7x= 39
Subtract 4 from both sides
-7x= 35
Divide both sides by -7
x= -5
The value of x+1= (-5)+1= -4.
