Ok so we know that y=1 so we can simply sub in the value of y into the equation :
y = -5x +3
1 = -5x +3
Move the -5x to the LHS ( Left-hand-side ) therefore it changes sign as well move 1 to the RHS ( Right-hand-side ) it also changes sign.
5x = 3 - 1
5x = 2
x = 2/5
x = 0.4
Hope this helps :).
The missing length is 51.5, I hope this helps :)
2.65x + 2.50 = y
step by step explanation:
2.65 is how much for each mile, and the variable, x, represents the number of miles of the trip. so, we would do 2.65x to find out how much money you have to pay for the amounts of mile.
next, you would have to add the initial fee, which is 2.50. so 2.65x+2.50.
lastly, y represents the total cost of the trip. so, 2.65x + 2.50 = y
It would be 200+9+0.1+0.006.
