Answer:

y = (1/2)x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b

y = (1/2)x + b

Answer:

Step 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Michelle's step in trying to solve the equation is given below:

$\begin{aligned} t-\dfrac35&=\dfrac45\\\\ t-\dfrac35+\dfrac35&=\dfrac45+\dfrac35&\green{\text{Step } 1}\\\\ t&=1&\blue{\text{Step } 2} \end{aligned}$

Michelle made a mistake in Step 2.

The right hand side of Step 1: $\dfrac45+\dfrac35\neq 1$

Rather, the correct sum is:

$\dfrac45+\dfrac35=\dfrac75\\\\=1\dfrac25$
