On a piece of paper, graph Y = 2x - 3, what is the answer?
1 answer:
First, determine y-intercept and x-intercept of the line
# y-intercept (when x = 0)
y = 2x - 3
y = 2(0) - 3
y = 0 - 3
y = -3
# x-intercept (when y = 0)
y = 2x - 3
0 = 2x - 3
2x - 3 = 0
2x = 3
x = 3/2
x = 1.5
Second, put y-intercept and x-intercept on cartesian plane, then connect the intercepts

# y-intercept (when x = 0)
y = 2x - 3
y = 2(0) - 3
y = 0 - 3
y = -3
# x-intercept (when y = 0)
y = 2x - 3
0 = 2x - 3
2x - 3 = 0
2x = 3
x = 3/2
x = 1.5

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If x is the white dot on the graph:
From what it looks like, x is right between -35 and -34 x (which is -35.5).
If that is the case then none of the answers are correct since -35.5 is <u>equal or less</u> than x. (the sign looks like this: "" )
But if you have to choose one of the answers then number 4 (-35.5 < x) would be closest.
