-3x + 6y + 5 = -7
<u> -5 -5</u>
-3x + 6y = -12
-3x + 3x + 6y = -12 + 3x
<u>6y</u> = <u>-12 + 3x</u>
6 6
y = -2 + 1/2x
-3x + 6(-2 + 1/2x) = -12
-3x - 12 + 3x = -12
-3x + 3x - 12 = -12
0x - 12 = -12
<u> +12 +12</u>
<u>0x</u> = <u>0</u>
0 0
x = 0
-3(0) + 6y = -12
0 + 6y = -12
<u>+0 +0</u>
<u>6y</u> = <u>-12</u>
6 6
y = -2
(x, y) = (0, -2)
True y=2x+1 and y-3x=4 it would be the same way because you can solve for x and you can solve for y
We have this equation for the slope is: y=mx+b which m is the slope and b is the y-intercept, so we have y=20-15x or y=-15x+20, and we already know that the slope is -15 and y-intercept is 20. As a result, the student's error is that he thinks that 20 is the slope because it is the first number. Hope it help!
