First, reorder the terms: -.03+1.3n= -9 Then move the terms that contain an "n" to the left, and all with no variables to the right Add -.03 to each side -.03+-.03+1.3n= -9+.03 Combine the like terms 0.00 + 1.3n = -9 + 0.03
1.3n = -9 + 0.03
<span> -9 + 0.03 = -8.97
1.3n = -8.97 Then divide each side by 1.3 and you will get n= -6.9
The graph starts flat but then curves steeply upwards. You can tell this by the sudden jumps in y-coordinates, illustrating that it keeps going further up faster and faster as the x-coordinates progress steadily.
