Because you have two variables and only one equation, you can only solve for approximate answers, and not complete, absolute answers.
<h3><u>You can simplify this equation to x = -4y + 12</u></h3>
y - 3 = -1/4(x + 3)
Distributive property.
y - 3 = -1/4x - 3/4
Multiply all terms by 4.
4y - 12 = -x
Multiply all terms by -1
-4y + 12 = x
Answer:
Slope is 5.
Step-by-step explanation:
y + 3x = 8x -7
y = 5x - 7
coefficient in front of x is the slope/rate of change once you get the equation slope intercept for y = mx + b. m is the slope.
