Answer:
y = -5/3x -13/3
Step-by-step explanation:
In any "solve for ..." problem, it is useful to start by identifying where the target is and what has been done to it. Here, y is in one term on the left side of the equation and it has had these things done to it:
We want to undo these in reverse order. We undo addition by adding the opposite. We undo multiplication by multiplying by the reciprocal (equivalently, dividing). <em>Whatever we do to one side of the equation, we must also do to the other side</em>.
So, first we add the opposite of -5x to both sides of the equation.
-5x +5x -3y = 13 +5x
-3y = 13 +5x . . . . . . . . . collect terms
Next, we undo the multiplication by -3. We can do that by multiplying both sides by 1/(-3) = -1/3.
(-1/3)(-3y) = (-1/3)(13 +5x)
y = -5/3x -13/3 . . . . . also we rearranged the terms to standard form
So you need to solve for the x and y values...I personally would use a graph. The is this website called desmos, it can help you with this kind of problem. You can see that the green point which is (10, 44) is on the line.. Lets check our work...
y = 4x + 4
44 = 4(10) + 4
44 = 40 + 4
44 = 44
This is your answer. I hope this helps love! :)
- -- There are 260.714 weeks total in 5 years.
But you can round by doing this:
52*5=260
This is because you have 52 weeks in a year and 55 years so you multiply.
