Answer:
Since you are to calculate the value of x, the first thing to do is to collect the like terms, i.e bring all the families of x together.
which implies : x -12x +7x = 7 + 4
-4x = 11
Divide both sides by -4
therefore : x =
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y = x +
Step-by-step explanation:
the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )
To calculate the slope use the gradient formula
m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 3, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (5, 7)
m = =
, hence
y = x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation
using (5, 7 ), then
7 = + c ⇒ c = 7 -
=
y = x +
← equation in slope-intercept form
