Answer:

y=1/5x-31/5 (or y=0.2x-6.2 in decimals)

Step-by-step explanation:

x=5y-8 (original equation)

x+8=5y (Addition Property of Equality)

1/5x+8/5=y (Division Property of Equality, slope of original equation is 1/5)

y-y1=m(x-x1) (point-slope formula)

y-(-5))=1/5(x-(6)) (plug in the slope that was found earlier and the point given in the question)

y+5=1/5(x-6)

y+5=1/5x-6/5 (Distributive Property of Multiplication) Note: 5 = 25/5

y=1/5x-31/5 (Subtraction Property of Equality, and there's your answer)

y=0.2x-6.2 (This is the same answer, but written with decimals)

Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

$(x + 3) ^{ \frac{1}{2} } - 1 = x \\ \sqrt{x + 3} - 1 = x \\ \sqrt{x + 3} = x + 1 \\ square \: both \: sides \\ x + 3 = {x}^{2} + 2x + 1 \\ {x}^{2} + 2x - x + 1 - 3 = 0 \\ {x}^{2} + x - 2 = 0 \\ x ^{2} + 2x - x - 2 = 0 \\ (x^{2} + 2x) - (x + 2) = 0 \\ x(x + 2) - 1( x + 2) = 0 \\ (x - 1)(x + 2) = 0 \\ x - 1 = 0 \\ x = 1 \\ \\ \\ x + 2 = 0 \\ x = - 2$
