Question

If y=5x - 3 find the value of y when X = 0

Answer 1

Since we know y=5x - 3 and we know that x=0 then its a matter of plugging in what we know and simplifying. y=5 x 0 - 3 we need to remember the order of operations for this problem. PEMDAS parenthesis exponent multiply divide add subtrac. Since 5 time 0 is multiplication and multiplication comes before subtracting in the oder of operations we will solve that first. 5 times 0 equals 0 since anything times 0 is 0. All that's left is to subtract 3 which gives us y=-3 <span />
