Always, ALWAYS remeber this format: y = mx + b
In this equation, 'm' is the slope, and 'b' is the y-intercept
When you're trying to find a slope, remember that the equation is 
When finding the rise and run, look at two points that are on the graph AND on the line as well. Essentially, make sure the points you're using are integers.
In this, case, the rise is -3, and the run is 2. This means that the slope is 
Now we have the first part of our equation:
y = -
+ b
But wait! How do we find b?
Sometimes you have to input x in order to find it, but only when you're not supplied with a graph. In this case, all you have to do is look!
The point of the line that is on the y-axis is called the y-intercept.
In this graph, the y-intercept is -1
Now we have our complete equation!
y = -
- 1
Good luck!
7x - 1 = 5x - 8
Minus 5x on each side
2x -1 = -8
Plus 1 on each side
2x = -7
Divide by 2 on each side
x = -7/2
The number is most likely -7/2
Answer:
Option B, x = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Make an equation</u>
The values of 65 degrees and (3x + 5) are equal.
65 = 3x + 5
<u>Step 2: Subtract 5 from both sides</u>
65 - 5 = 3x + 5 - 5
60 = 3x
<u>Step 3: Divide both sides by 3</u>
60 / 3 = 3x / 3
<em>20 = x</em>
