Negative and Positive numbers dictate direction on a graph. Negative numbers indicate the point is moving left, and positive numbers indicate the point is moving right.
The given equation is: [/tex]y=-\frac{4}{3}x+6 [/tex] and we need to evaluate this for y=2. So, first step is to plug in 2 for y in the above equation. Therefore,
Multiply each sides by common denominator 3 6-18= -4x Subtract 18 from each sides. -12=-4x So, x=3
