Since xx
is on the right side of the equation, switch the sides so it is on the left side of the equation.mx+b=ymx+b=y
Since bb
does not contain the variable to solve for, move it to the right side of the equation by subtracting bb
from both sides.mx=−b+ymx=-b+y
Divide each term by mm
and simplify.Tap for fewer steps...Divide each term in mx=−b+ymx=-b+y
by mm
.mxm=−bm+ymmxm=-bm+ym
Reduce the expression by cancelling the common factors.
Cancel the common factor.mxm=−bm+ymmxm=-bm+ym
Divide xx
by 11
to get xx
.x=−bm+ymx=-bm+ym.
So if it's correct, rank as brainliest answer! :)
