Hey there!
I'll assume we're using the slope-intercept form equation:
y = mx + b
m = slope
b = y-intercept
First, we keep the y, because it's value depends on the x value given.
Next, we find the slope. Slope is defined as rise/run, so we take two points on the graph, find how much taller one is from another, and how far right/left they are, put those values over each other, and we have out slope (m).
Finally, we need to determine the y-intercept, and that's as simple as seeing where the line crosses the y axis and writing down that value.
Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
3(x - 2) + 8 = 2(x + 5)
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- (Parenthesis) Distribute: 3x - 6 + 8 = 2x + 10
- Combine like terms: 3x + 2 = 2x + 10
- {Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 2x on both sides: x + 2 = 10
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 2 on both sides: x = 8
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: 3(8 - 2) + 8 = 2(8 + 5)
- (Parenthesis) Subtract/Add: 3(6) + 8 = 2(13)
- Multiply: 18 + 8 = 26
- Add: 26 = 26
Here we see that 26 does indeed equal 26.
∴ x = 8 is the solution to the equation.
Answer:
x = -7
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = -2x + 9
f(x) = 23
therefore, f(x) =
-2x + 9 = 23
-2x = 23 - 9
-2x = 14
-x = 14 ÷ 2
-x = 7
x = -7
