Answer: y = (x-2)/3
This is equivalent to y = (1/3)x - 2/3
=================================================
To get this answer, we need to swap x and y in the original equation. Then solve for y to get the inverse.
y = 3x+2
x = 3y + 2 ... x and y swapped
x-2 = 3y
3y = x-2
y = (x-2)/3
y = x/3 - 2/3
y = (1/3)x - 2/3
This final equation has slope 1/3 and y intercept -2/3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y + 5 = -2(x + 3)
y + 5 = -2x - 6
y = -2x - 11
C negative numbers are always last.
Subtract 2b by both sides which gets -b+4=-5 then subtract 4 by both sides so you get -b=-9 and divide -1 by both sides so that b=9
