Question

Зу = 15x - 12; х= 0, 1, 2Solve equation for y. Then find the value of y for each value of x.

Answer 1

To solve for y

3y = 15x - 12

Divide the equation through by 3

3y/3 = 15x/3 - 12/3

y = 5x - 4

Substituting for x= 0,1,2

for x = 0

y = 5(0) - 4

y= 0-4

y=-4

for x=1

y = 5(1) - 4

y = 5 -4

y=1

for x=2

y= 5(2) - 4

y = 10 -4

y=6
