Answer:x=19/3

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-5=14

Add 5 to both sides

3x-5+5=14+5

3x=19

Divide both sides by 3

3x/3=19/3

X=19/3

What is the equation of the line, written in slope-intercept form? Show how you determined the equation.

kondor19780726 [428]

The equation of a line is defined by: y=mx+b

Step 1: Find the slope (rise over run) so, the rise is 15.7 and the run is 6. 15.7/6=2.62

y=2.62x+b

Step 2: Find the b value (y intercept) - this is where the line goes through the y axis. In this case, it's 15.7

Step 3: add the slope and the b value together - y=2.62x+15.7
