We need to get x alone, to do that we add 1 to both sides to cancel out the -1 on the right.
-4 = x -1
+1 +1
-3=x
This means x is equal to -3. Hope this helps!
-1 is your x intercept so the first point is going to be at (0,-1) and from there go up 1 and over to the right 2 and mark another point and so one
First answer: 12
Second answer: 6

How to get these answers
She uses 1/3 of a cup for 1 cake, so we have this ratio
1/3 cup : 1 cake
Multiply both sides by 3 and we end up with
1 cup : 3 cakes
Then multiply both sides by 4 to change "1 cup" to "4 cups" and we have
4 cups : 12 cakes which is the answer to the first part
-------------
For part 2, we'll follow the same steps as before, but instead of multiplying both sides by 4, we do 2 instead because we're dealing with 2 cups of oil.
1/3 cup : 1 cake
3*(1/3 cup) : 3*(1 cake)
1 cup : 3 cakes
2*(1 cup) : 2*(3 cakes)
2 cups : 6 cakes which is the answer to the second part
