You plug in the number for x and if it is equal to the solution then it is correct

Answer:

Someone already explained this and their right but I wanted to add an example.

Lets say you have the equation 4x+3=19.

You solve it by subtracting three from both sides to isolate x which gives you 4x=16 and dividing both sides by 4 to get you an answer of 4.

Now, you know x=4 but you're not completely sure so you can check it.

Substitute the known value of x into the original equation and check to see if both sides equal.

4(4)+3=19

16+3=19

19=19

This checks out so your answer is correct.

What is the equation in point-slope for the linear function whose graph contains points (1, -2) and (-3, 6)?
S_A_V [24]

Answer:y+2 = 2(x-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

First we find the slope

(1,-2) (-3,6)

rise/run

change of y/change of x

8/-4

-2

The slope is -2

point slope form is y-y1 = m(x-x1)

m is the slope, y1 is y coordinate of a point and x1 is x coordinate of same point as the y1 point.

lets use (1,-2)

y-(-2) = 2(x-1)

point slope form

y+2 = 2x-2

y = 2x-4

How can you change 9x-7y=-2 in slope intercept form
Anvisha [2.4K]
Slope-intercept form gives is y=mx+b where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.

You can see that in slope-intercept form the y term is alone. In order to convert 9x-7y=-2 into slope intercept form, you must isolate the y term.

First we'll subtract 9x from each side.
-7y=-9x-2

Now we can divide both sides by -7.
y= \frac{-9x-2}{-7}

Now we can simplify it.
y= \frac{9}{7}x+ \frac{2}{7}
