If you graph the two equations then you will find that they intersect at (-2,-2).
You then have to check your answer.
x=4y+6
(-2)=4(-2)+6
-2=-8+6
-2=-2
x-3y=4
(-2)-3(-2)=4
-2+6=4
4=4
Take 12 from 24 and if the the answer is 12 then it's a factor.
I would guess they're referring to some general form first<span>f(x)=alog(x−h)+k</span>Where 'h' represents horizontal shifts, 'k' vertical shifts and 'a' stretches the function. "a" will also reflect the function across the x-axis if the value is negative. But NOT across the y-axis. I hope that's the place they wanted to put the a at least
203---- 100%
x-----148%
x=203*148/100=203*1.48=300.44
