Essentially, what you are doing is taking each individual point and moving that point as specified.
So, for example, problem 1 has coordinates as follows: (be aware: I have terrible eyesight, so the points are being named based on what I think the letters are).
X: located at (2,0), move 1 unit left, new location: (1,0) G: located at (4,0), move 1 unit left, new location: (3,0) Q: located at (2,-2), move 1 unit left, new location: (1,-2) C: located at (3,-4), move 1 unit left, new location: (2,-4)
4h+3=The Pay of Shea
3.5h +6= The pay of Kelly
4h+3=3.5h+6
-3 -3
4h=3.5h+3
-3.5h
.5h=3
*2 *2
h=?
Then stick "h" into one of the original equations and solve for someones pay to get "p"
3.5(h)+6=p OR 4(h)+3 =p
