Steps to solve:
3(x - 1) = 5x + 3 - 2x
~Distribute left side
3x - 3 = 5x + 3 - 2x
~Combine like terms
3x - 3 = 3x - 3
~Subtract 3x to both sides
-3 = -3
~Add 3 to both sides
0 = 0
All real numbers are solutions.
Best of Luck!
Answer:
The rate of change: 1/5
Initial value: (0,-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
The rate of change is easily 5/25, we just have to simplify it to 1/5.
To get the intial value, just subtract (2,9) by the rate of change twice.
