Answer: C y=1/3x
Step-by-step explanation:
All Y-values in the table are 1/3 of the corresponding X-value. To check: 3/1=1, 6/3=2, 9/3=3
6(7 - 2)
6(5)
Check:
7*6 = 42
2*6 = 12
42-12 = 30 = 6(5) :)
Because change in y for the rise is if it goes up or down and change in x for the run to see if it goes left or right
They always say to do the problem in parentheses first

Problem Solving
Linear equations are often used to solve practical problems that have an unknown quantity. We use a suitable pronumeral to represent the unknown quantity, translate the information given in the problem into an equation, and then solve the equation using the skills acquired earlier in this chapter.
Example 11
If a number is increased by 8, the result is 25. Find the number.
Solution:
Let x be the number. Increasing x by 8 gives x + 8, which we are told is 25. Therefore, x + 8 = 25. Subtract 8 from both sides to find x = 17. So, the number is 17.
