<span>n Billy's class, 75% of his classmates had brown hair. 18 of his classmates had brown hair. What's the total number of students in his class?</span>
Go look them up and it should tell you the definition
Answer:
We start with the equation:
A: 3*(x + 2) = 18
And we want to construct equation B:
B: X + 2 = 18
where I suppose that X is different than x.
Because in both equations the right side is the same thing, then the left side also should be the same thing, this means that:
3*(x + 2) = X + 2
Now we can isolate the variable x.
(x + 2) = (X + 2)/3
x = (X + 2)/3 - 2
Then we need to replace x by (X + 2)/3 - 2 in equation A, and we will get equation B.
Let's do it:
A: 3*(x + 2) = 18
Now we can replace x by = (X + 2)/3 - 2
3*( (X + 2)/3 - 2 + 2) = 18
3*( (X + 2)/3 ) = 18
3*(X + 2)/3 = 18
(X + 2) = 18
Which is equation B.

Put numbers up and down the X and Y axis showing what the graph values are. (Ex: see picture ) make sure you do it accurately based on what the slope will look like.
