Question

Whats the solution.?

Answer 1

x-4=-1/5x+2
Add 4 to both sides
x=-1/5x+6
Add 1/5x to both sides
6/5x=6
Multiply each side by 6/5
X=7.2

Answer 2

Answer:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                    y-(x-4)=0

Equation of a Straight Line

1.1     Solve   y-x+4  = 0

Tiger recognizes that we have here an equation of a straight line. Such an equation is usually written y=mx+b ("y=mx+c" in the UK).

"y=mx+b" is the formula of a straight line drawn on Cartesian coordinate system in which "y" is the vertical axis and "x" the horizontal axis.

 

In this formula :

y tells us how far up the line goes

x tells us how far along

m is the Slope or Gradient i.e. how steep the line is

b is the Y-intercept i.e. where the line crosses the Y axis

The X and Y intercepts and the Slope are called the line properties. We shall now graph the line  y-x+4  = 0 and calculate its properties
