How can I solve this math equation?

Graphing

Step-by-step explanation:

1) You can graph this equation by using y=mx+b. You can replace that equation with y=3x-1.

M=3

X=x

B=-1

On a graph you would down 1 since it's negative and make a point. Then you would put a 1 under the 3 to make it a fraction. 3/1. Then you would divide 1 by 3 (1 ÷ 3). Then you would go to the right 0.33 because it's positive, and the up 1. Then you would make a second point.

This would only give you one line which wouldn't give you an intersection.

walter needs to make at least 5 more cookies but no more than 40. 5 ≥ x ≥ 40;

step-by-step explanation:

walter has to make a minimum of 20 cookies. he already has 15 cookies made, so he must make 5 more to meet the minimum.

the maximum amount of cookies he can make is 55. he already has 15, so he has to make no more than 40 more cookies to meet the maximum.

the roots are ( x-intercepts) x=-0.5,x=1,x=3

the y-intercept is the point (0,3)
