Answer:
x = - 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
+ 3 = x - 2
Multiply through by 3 to clear the fraction
4x + 9 = 3x - 6 ( subtract 3x from both sides )
x + 9 = - 6 ( subtract 9 from both sides )
x = - 15
Answer:
Y=9x-21
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
We are given two ordered pairs which are:
- (0,0)
- (5,4)
If you are curious how do I get these ordered pairs, they come from those two big circles or dots. x and y make relation and can be written as (x,y).
1. Find the slope
- Yes, our first step is to find the slope of a graph if you want to find an equation. You may be curious how to find that right? No worries! We have got a special formula for you to find the slope!
Since we have two given points, we can substitute them in the formula.
2. Form an equation.
- Since we have finally found, got or evaluated the slope. Next step is to find the y-intercept. Oh! Before we get to form an equation, do you know the slope-intercept form? We will be using that linear equation form since it is commonly used in the topic.
Where <u>m</u><u> </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>s</u><u>l</u><u>o</u><u>p</u><u>e</u> and <u>b</u><u> </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>y</u><u>-</u><u>i</u><u>n</u><u>t</u><u>e</u><u>r</u><u>c</u><u>e</u><u>p</u><u>t</u><u>.</u> We substitute m = 4/5.
Next thing to remember is that when the graph intersects an origin point, b-term or y-intercept would be 0. Therefore b = 0 since the graph intersects (0,0).
3. Answer
- Therefore the equation of the line is y = 4x/5.
