start by plugging in the value you already have, in this case, 5 for y.
-4x-3(5)=17
-4x-15=17
-4x=32
x=-8
however, since a is a+1, a would be 7 (making x 8)
also plz tell me if i read this wrong and it’s actually 1,5 rather than a+1 and 5 cause if i did i’m so sorry lol.
That's OK, but you have not said which variable you want to solve it for.
<u>To solve for 'x':</u>
<span>c + ax = dx
Subtract c from each side: ax = dx - c
Subtract dx from each side: ax - dx = -c
Factor the left side: x (a - d) = -c
Divide each side by (a - d) : x = -c / (a - d) or <u>x = c / (d - a)</u> .

Subtract ax from each side and factor: <u>c = x (d - a) </u>
</span><u>To solve for 'd': </u>

Divide each side by 'x': d = c/x + a .

Subtract 'c' from each side: ax = dx - c
Divide each side by 'x': <u>a = d - c/x </u>.

Answer:
rate of change = -0.32
Step-by-step explanation:
Rate of change = slope,m

Pretty sure it’s 5x^2 - 2x
