OpenStudy (dan815):

have u learnt y=mx+b form

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep

OpenStudy (dan815):

okay so what happens when you arrange this equation in that form

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u there?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5x+8=y???????

OpenStudy (dan815):

xD no how did u do get that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk?

OpenStudy (dan815):

soo you dont know how to rearrange equations?

OpenStudy (dan815):

hmm okay!

OpenStudy (dan815):

well its kinda like a fun game okay wait

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im so tired im gonna tal to a tutor tomorrow im just completing my work so i dont fail math

OpenStudy (dan815):

u wont fail math dont worry

OpenStudy (dan815):

just keep paying attention.. and ull not only not fail u ll be ahead of everyone

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i just need to hurry

OpenStudy (dan815):

rush now feel the pain later

OpenStudy (anonymous):

kk

OpenStudy (dan815):

okay so lets do this -_-

OpenStudy (dan815):

2y+6=5x okay

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep

OpenStudy (dan815):

since both sides are equal if u do the same operation to both sides they shud remain equal

OpenStudy (dan815):

subtract 6 from both sides 2x+6-6=5x-6, can you simpify what we have so far

OpenStudy (dan815):

2y+6-6=5x-6

OpenStudy (dan815):

that should say y...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2y=-1x

OpenStudy (dan815):

the riight side is right but

OpenStudy (dan815):

u cannnot actually take 6 away from 5x

OpenStudy (dan815):

because we dont know what x is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (dan815):

its like trying to take away 6 oranges from 5 apples we dont get -1 apple right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep

OpenStudy (dan815):

we just leave it as it is... we have 6 or in other words 6 of 1s and / we got 5 of xs thats all it is no ore simpification 2y=5x-6

OpenStudy (dan815):

okay now we are only looking for 1y and we have an expression for 2y

OpenStudy (dan815):

what should we do now?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then divide 2 fom both sides so it becomes y=5x-3

OpenStudy (dan815):

a mistake on the right check again

OpenStudy (dan815):

you are diving the whole side by 2
