The equation used above is y-intercept form.
ex. y = mx + b
Whatever is in front of the x is your slope.
Your slope is -3
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The result is given by means of some algebraic handling:

- Multiplication of rationals.
- Dividing each term by 2.
- Dividing each term by 2.
- Dividing each term by 3.
the only like-terms are on the right-hand-side, since the left-hand-side has only 1 term anyway.

If you have 8 yellow balloons for every 12 blue balloons, then if you have 20 balloons in total, 8 out of 20 of those balloons will be yellow. Then you can set up this ratio.
Then, you can use either cross multiplication or multiply the numerator and denominator by the same number to help solve for x. Personally, I prefer cross multiplication.
Finally, solve for x and if you had 100 balloons, you will have 40 yellow balloons.
<u>Corrected question :</u>
Solve the equation. Write your answer as an integer or simplified fraction.
<u>Required Solution :</u>
The given equation,
★ Multiplying -7 into (n - 2),
>> 8n - 7 × (n - 2) = 18
>> 8n - 7n + 14 = 18
★ On substracting 7n from 8n we gets,
>> n + 14 = 18
★ Now transposing 14 which is in L.H.S. into R.H.S. (Remember that sign would be . So 14 would be -14),
>> n = 18 - 14
>> n = 14
★ Therefore,
