Multiplying both sides of this equation by 3, to eliminate the fraction, we get:
9 + m = 6.
Next, we subtract 9 from both sides to isolate m: m = 6 - 9 = -3
Then m = -3.
Check: Subst. -3 for m in this equation:
9 - 3 6
------- = ------ = 2 (as expected). Thus, m = -3 is correct.
3 3
Problem #10:
4n - 9 = -9 Add 9 to both sides: 4n = -9 + 9 = 0.
Divide both sides by 4: n = 0.
Check: Substitute 0 for n: 4(0) - 9 = -9 is true.
Multiply the second question by -1 to cancel out the y’s. then add them. 11x=-11
x=-1
substitute that back into one of the equations
-3(-1)+y=-5
3+y=-5
y=-8
5*5-10=15 I hope this helps you
Linear function it has a variable
Let's start off like this:
This is a line connecting to another that has an undefined slope, so X had to be 5 for all the values of Y. The coordinates could be (5,6) or (5,4).
