Step-by-step explanation:
Replace each x in the expression/equation with the given value. Then use order of operations to simplify and solve. There are some great videos out there explaining the concept.
First, find the slope (m) =
=
=
= 
Now plug in ONE of the points and the slope into the point-slope equation:
y - y₁ = m(x - x₁); where (x₁, y₁) is the chosen point.
y - 5 =
(x - 1) (I used (1,5) as the chosen point)
3(y - 5) = x - 1
3y - 15 = x - 1
3y -14 = x
-14 = x - 3y → x - 3y = -14
Answer: x - 3y = -14
56 is you answer you need.

<u>- 1.6m -1.6m
</u> -4.8 = -3.2m
<u>
</u>divide both sides by -3.2
m = 1.5</span>
Well this one is very simple. It seems to give 1 lb per 4 dollars spent. So, the best way to state this mathematically is x=4y or x=4×y.
