We are given the following:
Simplify the left side of the equation by using the distributive property. After you distribute, you end up with:
Combine like terms:
Subtract 7 from both sides to cancel the +7 on the left. When you do that, you end up with:
Divide both sides by 7 to isolate x.
Your final answer should be:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
9x+=x-13
9x*3+1/3=x-13
27x+1/3=x-13
27x+1=3(x-13)
27x+1=3x-39
27x-3x=-39-1
24x=-40
x=-5/3
x=-5/3
y = 1/3x
The slope is 1/3 ( the slope is the number with the variable x).
There is no other operation ( addition or subtraction) so the y- intercept is 0
The first point of the graph would be (0,0)
Calculate another point , lets use x = 3
y = 1/3(3) = 1
The second point is (3,1)
The line of the graph is an angled line which is located in quadrant 1 and 3.
