Answer:
x-6 = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 8= -2
Add 8 to each side
3x - 8+8= -2+8
3x = 6
Divide by 3
3x/3 = 6/2
x =2
We want to find x-6
2-6 = -4
Answer:
36
Step-by-step explanation:
Ejiro + her sister's age = 64

Answer:
y=2x-2
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>the slope is y/x</em>
the slope is 2 or 2/1
<em>subtract 2 from the y value and 1 from the x value</em>
(3-1,4-2) = (2,2)
<em>keep doing this until you get a 0 in the x value</em>
(2-1,2-2) = (1,0)
<em>1 is your x-intercept</em>
(1-1,0-2) = (0,-2)
-2 is your y intercept.
So now you know your y-intercept and your slope so you can now write your equation.
<em>y=mx+b</em>
<em>m=slope, b=y-intercept</em>
m=2, b=-2
<em>substitute into the equation</em>
y=2x-2
