Part 1
yequals=mx plus 5mx+5
​(a) Solve for m.

Answer 1

Let's solve the equation \( y = mx + 5mx + 5 \) for \( m \).

First, we can combine the terms on the right side:

\[
y = (m + 5m)x + 5
\]
\[
y = 6mx + 5
\]

Now, we can isolate \( m \).

1. Subtract 5 from both sides:

\[
y - 5 = 6mx
\]

2. Divide both sides by \( 6x \) (assuming \( x \neq 0 \)) to express \( m \):

\[
m = \frac{y - 5}{6x}
\]

Thus, the solution for \( m \) is:

\[
m = \frac{y - 5}{6x}
\]
