Only one. 8
Divide by 6 on both sides. x = 8. That's it.
Answer: y = 1/3x +2
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of line in slope - point form is given as:
y -
= m ( x -
)
m = 1/3
= 0
= -6
substituting into the formula , we have
y - 0 = 1/3 ( x - {-6} )
y = 1/3 (x+6)
y = 1/3x +2
Answer:
Half the age of Carlos four years ago is 2 years more than one-third his current age.
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to write a word problem for the equation.

Let x represent the present age of Carlos.
Four years ago, Carlos was x-4 years.
Half his age four years ago is ½(x-4)
Two years more than one-third his current age is ⅓x+2
