Y=mx+b is The equation of any straight line, called a linear equation, can be written as: y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept. The y-intercept of this line is the value of y at the point where the line crosses the y axis.
-x+40=28
-x=-12 (subtract 40 from both sides)
Divide by -1(in both sides)because you cant have a negative age.
COLE is 12
