Hey there!
2(x - 3) / y = 5
2(x - 3) / 5 = 5
2(x) + 2(-3) / 5 = 5
(2x - 6) 5 = 5
MULTPLY 5 to BOTH SIDES
(2x - 6)/5 * 5 = 5 * 5
SIMPLIFY IT!
2x - 6 = 5 * 5
2x - 6 = 25
ADD 6 to BOTH SIDES
2x - 6 + 6 = 25 + 6
SIMPLIFY IT!
2x = 25 + 6
2x = 31
DIVIDE 2 to BOTH SIDES
2x/2 = 31/2
SIMPLIFY IT!
x = 31/2
x = 15 1/2
Therefore, the answer should be:
x = 15 1/2
Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!

You must do work presented inside parentheses first. Thus, do this first: (-5-7).
Answer:
try doing the 3rd option
Step-by-step explanation:
we know x is the missing value
x+3=8
so what plus 3 equals 8?
Well 5 of course
So x= 5
5+3=8
x-intercept is 6, coordinates (6,0)
y-intercept -4, coordinates (0,-4)
gradient= y1-y2/x1-x2= 0-(-4)/6-0= 4/6= 2/3 or 0.667 (3.s.f.)
