Umm well ill show you how I do it so if it is 67 minus 72 I would subtract the tens spot first then I would do the ones it works for me and it is easy so I hope this helped ohand the answer is -5
The equation of the line has the form: y = ax+b parallel to the line y = -2x + 7
=> a= -2
Passes through (4,1) => x=4, y=1
Substituting into the equation:
1= -2x(4) + b => b= 9
=> y= -2x + 9
5x-23=87
add 23 to both sides
5x=110
divide both sides by 5
x=22
To check your answer...
5(22)-23=87
110-23=87
87=87
The correct answer is A.
Horizontal shift is obtained by addition/subtraction a number to every occurrence of x in the equation. Addition indicates a shift towards left and subtraction indicates a shift towards right.
So the correct answer is Subtract that number From.
