Are you trying to find x, or are you only suppose to translate it?
If you are trying to find x, you first multiply 2x on both sides
100 = 10(2x)
Divide 10 on both sides
10 = 2x
Divide 2 on both sides
5 = x
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We will use slope-intercept form of equation to write our equation. The equation of a line in slope-intercept form is: , where m= Slope of the line, b= y-intercept.
To write the equation that represents the number of credits y on the cards after x games, we will find slope of our line.
We have been given that after playing 5 games we have 33 credits left. We play 4 more games and we have 21 credits left. So our points will be (5,33) and (9,21).
Let us substitute coordinates of our both given points in slope formula: ,
Now let us substitute m=-3 and coordinates of point (5,33) in slope intercept form of equation to find y-intercept.
Upon substituting m=-3 and b=48 in slope-intercept form of an equation we will get,
Therefore, our desired equation will be .
