Question

I don't get it. How would I solve it

Answer 1

before u can graph this equation get the equation in standard form: y=mx+b

Answer 2

first solve this equation
y-3=2(x-4)
y-3=2x-8
y=2x-5

Answer 3

I got 2x-5, I'm having trouble graphing...

Answer 4

@SephI now solve it

Answer 5

put the value of x=0
y=0-5=-5

Answer 6

1solution=(0,-5)

Answer 7

b is the y intercept

Answer 8

put the value of x=1
y=2-5
y=-3

Answer 9

2 solution=(1,-3)

Answer 10

@SephI there are may solutions

Answer 11

got it @SephI

Answer 12

so -5 is the y value when x is 0
then the slope is m which is 2
so go up 2 points from -5 go left 1 because your slope is really 2/1
that's you next point then draw a line through both points

Answer 13

No, no I don't. Putting different numbers in will give me different answers?

Answer 14

then you will get a straight line

Answer 15

am i wrong?
@Bhagyashree

Answer 16

Okay, walk through step-by-step

Answer 17

you don't understand

Answer 18

you are not wrong @mayankdevnani it is just a different method

Answer 19

oh!! but it is right @SephI

Answer 20

wait let me explain in a different way

Answer 21

uw you can

Answer 22

there are infinitely solutions @SephI

Answer 23

Ok

Answer 24

@mayankdevnani , go on...

Answer 25

as what @mayankdevnani just said is right
if u plug a value of x in an equation u get a value of y for that x value
if u get 2 of those points they both belong to one equation that u want to graph
so its not wrong
u can also look at previous answer which is a different method of graphing

Answer 26

now put the value of x=5
y=10-5=5

Answer 27

2solution=(5,5)

Answer 28

now you understand @SephI

Answer 29

take the value of x=4
y=8-5=3

Answer 30

3solution=(4,3)

Answer 31

also (4,3) is in the graph as line pass through it

Answer 32

ok @SephI

Answer 33

@hartnn am i right?

Answer 34

about what ?
u have to graph the line, right ?
find x and y intercepts, plot them, and just daw a staright line passing through them.
To get x-intercept put y=0 in the equation
to get y-intercept put x=0 in the equation

i am too lazy to go through all the comments....
