What is the value of x when y = 5?
y = \(\frac{1}{2}\) x + 1
8
9
10
11
Explication
when y = 5; x = ?; y = \(\frac{1}{2}\)x + 1
5 = \(\frac{1}{2}\)x + 1
5 - 1 = \(\frac{1}{2}\)x
4 = \(\frac{1}{2}\)x
x = 4 x 2
x = 8
5 = \(\frac{1}{2}\)x + 1
5 - 1 = \(\frac{1}{2}\)x
4 = \(\frac{1}{2}\)x
x = 4 x 2
x = 8
