3x = 45

We have to isolate x. To do that we must bring 3 to the right side of the equation.

How is that done?

Well you need a little bit of magic. Just kidding, you need something close to it. It's called math

Since three is being multiplied by x we have to do the opposite of multiplication to bring it over to the right side and cancel 3 from the left side. The opposite of multiplication is DIVISION so...

3x ÷ 3 = 45 ÷ 3

^^^What you do to one side you do to the other

x = 15

Hope this helped!

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-6, -6) and has a<br> slope of - 1/3

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

The equation of the line is $y = -\frac{1}{3}x - 8$

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line:

The equation of a line has the following format:

$y = mx + b$

In which m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Slope of - 1/3

This means that $m = -\frac{1}{3}$

$y = -\frac{1}{3}x + b$

Through the point (-6, -6)

This means that when $x = -6, y = -6$ . So

$y = -\frac{1}{3}x + b$

$-6 = -\frac{1}{3}(-6) + b$

$b + 2 = -6$

$b = -8$

The equation of the line is $y = -\frac{1}{3}x - 8$
