what grade are you in

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

You can plug in the following solutions offered as well as y = 1, into your equation.

OpenStudy (16shuston):

plug 1 in as your y so then your equation will look like this 3x-117 solve for x

OpenStudy (16shuston):

17*

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

So we know y = 1, 3x-1=17, so what x value from the given will give you 17 = 17

OpenStudy (16shuston):

3x-1=17 solve for x

OpenStudy (anonymous):
