hello, i have a question tutor, how do you solve this equation? : y = 2/3x + 5 for x=1,2,3 ??????

[YourTutorOnline]

@LittleKidMery25 just plug in the number you are given (you'll have to do this 3 times, because you have 3 numbers to try). Where every you see an x, replace it by 1 then solve. Do the same thing for 2, and 3.

Dear tutor, what if you are not given a Y intercept number, that is Y=2/3x?

[YourTutorOnline]

@bomberfun1 then the y intercept is zero, at the origin.

Dear tutor, what does x stand for in the formula?

[YourTutorOnline]

@bomberfun1 x is a coordinate, it will change as you trace the line.

I think you need to teach my Algebra teacher how it's done...please?

It blows my mind that my math teacher cant get me to understand something in a 45 minute period but a 5:31 video can. Thanks you.

thanks alot you save me from failig a test!

[gabbybruno97]

can y be negituve like -y=2x+1

[level10oreo]
