Answer:
I like saying rise over run because it helps me remember that rise means how many units you move up or down from point to point which on a graph would be a change in the y values. Also that run means how far left or right you move from point to point which on the graph would mean a change of x values.
Step-by-step explanation:
4/10 is 4 away from 0 (not counting the zero but if you did is 5 away from 0) 7/10 is 3 away from 4/10 and 2/10 is 2 behind 4/10
Try to get all your like terms to the same side. for example get all your x values to the left side and all your number values to the right side.
5 + 2x = 8x - 4
2x - 8x = - 4 - 5
-6x = -9
x = -9/-6
x = 1.5 or 1 1/2
hope this helps and have a great day! :)
