It may be useful to multiply the whole expression by 2, in order to get rid of denominators:
Distribute the negative sign in the left hand side:
Move all terms involving x to the left, and all constants to the right:
Sum like terms:
DIvide both sides -5:
Answer:
<h2>y = 3.5x - 2</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:
<h3>y = mx + b</h3>
m - slope
b - y-intercept
We have y-intercept b = -2. Substitute:
<h3>y = mx - 2</h3>
We have the point (4, 12) → x = 4, y = 12. Put them in the equation:
12 = 4m - 2 <em>add 2 to both sides</em>
14 = 4m <em>divide both sides by 4</em>
14/4 = m → m = 3.5
Answer:
Tom started out with 57 games but sold 37 of them.
