Answer:

23

Step-by-step explanation:

The word decreased indicates the use of subtraction, so to figure out our answer we do the opposite, -1 + 24 = 23, after that we then subtract, 23 - 24 = -1, there for your answer should be 23 - 24 = -1, or more simply the number that has to be decreased to make the statement true is 23

Someone please tell me how to work out this type of problem i completely forgot
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

Plug the x-values into the equation to get the y values. This will give you coordinates that you can graph a line with.

Step-by-step explanation:

For x = -5:  y = -3 - 2 * (-5) = 7, so the coordinates are (-5, 7)

For x = -2:  y = -3 - 2 * (-2) = 1, so the coordinates are (-2, 1)

(Etc.)

Then, plot these coordinates and draw a line through them to complete the graph.
