Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Switch Sides

Subtract 2 From Both Sides

Simplify

Multiply Both Sides By -6

Simplify

Equation for slope=1/3 and y-intercept=-1 is:
y = mx + b
where m is slope and b is y-intercept.
So, equation becomes
y = -1x + 1/3
Now put different values of x in the equation to get corresponding value of y.
x y
0 1/3
1 -2/3
2 -5/3
3 -8/3
-1 4/3
-2 7/3
-3 10/3
First, let's add all the x's.
x + x + x + x + x = 5x
5x - 1 + 1 + 1 + 1
Now, let's add together all the 1's that are being added (not the 1 that is being subtracted from 5x).
1 + 1 + 1 = 3
5x - 1 + 3
3 - 1 = 2
5x + 2
There's no way you can actually solve this unless you know the value of x; without x's value, this is as simplified as the expression is going to get.
Hope this helps!
