-plugin W value to solve for L
To find your answer you would divide 21 by 3 which would be 7, once you've got 7 you would multiply it by 9 which would give you the amount of old houses that there is which would be 63.
10x-3(x-6)=-(x-1)
first distribute
10x -3x +18 = -x + 1
then you simplify
7 x +18 = -x +1
then you leave of when one side of x
6 x +18= +1
use opposite operation on the side with the x and do the same equation to the other side
6 x = -17
then divide
x = - 2.8333....
A nonlinear function is a function whose graph is not a line or part of a line. Ex: 2, 5, 7, 9, 19, 28, 30, 31, 50, 55, 56, 57, 60, 70, 75...
