What you would do is that you would use the y=mx+b linear equation
m=5
x=-1
y=-3
b=?
hence, you must solve b to have the equation
-3=(5)(-1)+b
-3=-5+b
-3+5=b
2=b
therefore the equation is
y=5x+2
for standard form you just move everything to equal 0 because there is no fraction next to the x
thus
-5x+y-2=0
Answer:
m= 11.4
Step-by-step explanation:
13.5= m+2.1
Subtract 2.1 to both sides
13.5= m+2.1
-2.1 -2.1
11.4= m
10book=30mins
divide 10
1book=3mins
time=(time to read 1 book) times (number of books)
time to read 1 book=3 mins
15 books
15 books=15 times 3mins
15books=45mins
45 mins
