Problema Solution

if (x/3)-(y/3)=-3, which statement best explains how the value of y changes each time x is increased by 1 unit?

Answer provided by our tutors

Solution:

We convert the equation into the standard form y = mx + b:

y/3 = x/3 + 3

y = x + 9

 

We can see that the slope of the equation m = 1. So for every increase of x by 1, the value of y increases by 1.
