A statement that has mathematical expressions that are equal.
Examples:
2+1=3
11x4=44
Answer:
x=26/3 because you need to comine like terms as usual
When a linear equation is in the form y = mx + c, the c, or constant, is the intercept on the y axis, meaning it crosses the y axis at (0, 1).
The gradient (1/3 in this case) is how much the y increments (or decrements) per increase of 1 of the value of x.
This would mean that there would be one point at (0, 1), and another at (3, 2). Draw a line from these two points and beyond, and that is the graph sketched.
You have to divide 140,000 by 7 to get the base number of 20,000. You then multiply it by 2 and 5 for each respective person. Joe invested 40,000 and Matt invested 100,000.
