Simple,
x+7= 18-2x
you want isolate the variable, x, to find what it's value is...
x+7=18-2x
+2x +2x
Making it..
3x+7=18
still not done...finish isolating the variable...
3x+7=18
-7 -7
3x=11
=
Thus, your answer is, x=
.
Slope intercept formula is:
y = mx + b
m is the slope
b is the y-intercept
Let's find m, the slope:
The formula for slope when using two points on a line is:
In this case...
^^^Plug these numbers into the formula for slope...
1
^^^This is your slope
So far this is our equation:
y = 1x + b OR y = x + b
Now let's find b, the y-intercept:
To do that you must plug in the point the line goes through in the x and y of the equation.
For this question I have chosen to plug in the point (-1, -5)
-5 = -1 + b
-5 + 1 = -1 + 1 + b
-4 = 0 + b
-4 = b
Your equation is:
y = x - 4
Hope this helped!
