Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x equal the mystery number

Our equation will be:

x - 5 = 1 + 3x

Subtract x from both sides

-5 = 1 + 2x

Subtract 1 from both sides

-6  = 2x

Divide both sides by 2

-3 = x

Which equation represents the graphed function?
QveST [7]
All of our equations are in slope-intercept form. Slope-intercept form is y=mx+b. m stands for the slope, and b stands for the y-intercept. Our y-intercept is 3. Therefore, we can eliminate the equations that say the y-intercept isn’t b. Next, we can find the slope. We have the points (0, 3) and (3, 2). The formula for slope is y2-y1/x2-x1. 2-3 is -1, 3-0 is 3. Our slope is -1/3. After eliminating those without the y-intercept, we have A or D. We know that the slope is -1/3, so the answer must be D.
