To solve for x, we have to remember to isolate the variable.
For 1/2, we can make that 0.5, since their values are equivalent. Our equation:
Let's distribute the 0.5 first.
Now, let's simplify the right side of the equation. We have to distribute the negative to 3x and 1.
Then, we simplify the entire expression.
Our equation now:
Let's add 3x to the right and 3x to the left to simplify the -3x on the right side of the equation.
Let's do the same thing we did in Step 3 to 1.5. Subtract 1.5 on both sides of the equation.
Finally, we divide both sides by 6 to isolate x.
The production of health drink cans at a warehouse can be represented by the equation below, where x represents the hours of production, and y the total supply of items in the warehouse, in hundreds.
Which of the following graphs represents this situation?
the equation is y= 3/5x+2
I drew the graph.
3/5 is the slope, and 2 is the y-intercept. So you start at (0,2), and go up 3 units, then right 5.
