The y-value is two more than three times the x-value
Nimfa-mama [501]
The strategy for these is to look at what these problems are telling you.

It says the y-value, so you know that this is a y = equation.

y = what? 

y = 2 more than. 4 is two more than 2, right? So saying it's more than is another way of saying "y is 2 + blah blah."

So y = 2 + what? Three times the x-value. What does that mean? 3*X = 3X.

Thus we arrive at the final answer, y = 3x + 2

Can someone solve 5 + 2x = + 6<br><br> and n - 3n = 14 - 4n<br><br> and 7 ( 5a - 4 ) - 1 = 14 - 8a
professor190 [17]

Answer:

5 + 2x = 6

2x = 6-5

2x = 1

x = 0.5

n -3n = 14 -4n

-2n = 14-4n (since 4n is negative, change the sign to make it positive and then add 4n to both sides of the equation)

2n = 14

n = 7

7 (5a - 4) - 1 = 14 - 8a

35a - 28 - 1 = 14 -8a

35a -29 = 14 - 8a

43a = 43

a = 1
