Answer:
y = -3x + 9
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
The hypotenuse is on the same line as BC but twice as long. So extend that line up and it will cross the y axis at (0,9). 9 will be your y intercept.
To find the slope start at C and count up 9 and to the left 3 to get to B.
So the slope is rise/run or 9/(-3) = -3.
Final equation would be y = -3x + 9
Solve. Note the equal sign. What you do to one side, you do to the other. Remember to follow PEMDAS.
First, distribute 5 to all terms within the parenthesis
5(w - 1) = (5)(w) + (5)(-1) = 5w - 5
Next, simplify. Combine like terms
5w - 5 - 2 = 5w + 7
5w - 7 = 5w + 7
Next, isolate the variable. Add 7 to both sides, and subtract 5w from both sides
5w (-5w) - 7 (+7) = 5w (-5w) + 7 (+7)
5w - 5w = 7 + 7
0 = 14 (Untrue).
