Answer:
x= -5/2 or -5.2
Step-by-step explanation:
you know the equation: y=mx+b, so we can substitute the -3 for x, the 7 for y and the -4 for m:
7=-4(-3)+b
now solve:
7=12+b
subtract 12 on both sides:
b=-5
now what you want to do is substitute it in and solve for x:
y=-4x-5
so:
5=-4x-5,
solve:
10=-4x
x=-5/2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hope this helped :)
