Question

If the function rule is x - 1/3 = y and x = -3, what is the value of y?

Answer 1

-3 1/3

Answer 2

x - 1/3 = y, where x = -3
-3 -1/3 = y
(-9/3) - 1/3 = y (multiplying numerator and denomiator by 3)
-10/3 = y

So y = -10/3 (or) -3 1/3

Answer 3

-3 1/3

Answer 4

x-1/3=y (x=-3)
-3-1/3=y
-4/3=y
