Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Find points from graph.

Point (0, 3)

Point (1, 5)

Step 2: Find slope m

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m

Substitute in points [Slope Formula]: $\displaystyle m=\frac{5-3}{1-0}$
[Slope] Subtract: $\displaystyle m=\frac{2}{1}$
[Slope] Divide: $\displaystyle m=2$

What does y equal y-16-3y=0

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

y = - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

y - 16 - 3y = 0

Group like terms

y - 3y - 16 = 0

Add similar elements: y - 3y = - 2y

- 2y - 16 = 0

Add 16 to both sides

- 2y - 16 + 16 = 0 + 16

Simplify

- 2y = 16

Divide both sides by - 2

$\frac{-2y}{-2}$ = $\frac{16}{-2}$

Simplify $\frac{-2y}{-2}$ : y

$\frac{-2y}{-2}$

Apply the fraction rule: $\frac{-a}{-b} = \frac{a}{b}$

= $\frac{2y}{2}$

Divide the numbers: $\frac{2}{2} = 1$

= y

Simplify $\frac{16}{-2}$ : - 8

$\frac{16}{-2}$

Apply the fraction rule: $\frac{-a}{-b} = \frac{a}{b}$

$-\frac{16}{2}$

Divide the numbers: $\frac{16}{2}$ = 8

= - 8

y = - 8
