A.23/6
b.23/8
c.26/5
d.64/9
For this case, the first thing we must do is define a variable.
We have then:
x: unknown number
We now write the equation that models the problem:

From here, we clear the value of x.
We multiply both sides of the equation by 2:

We subtract 30 on both sides of the equation:

Answer:
The value of the unknown number is given by:

Daaaaaaaaaammmmm that’s hard
(5,-3) (-1,6)
y=mx+b
calculate m:
(-3-6)/(5-(-1)
=-9/6=-1.5
y=-1.5x+b
insert the (5, -3) point to calculate b:
-3=-1.5*5+b
-3=-7.5+b
4.5=b
b=the y intercept, so the line intercepts x=0 at y=4.5
