Given the equation of the line y+1=-(×-2) find the x coordinate of point if y coordinate is -1

Y + 1 = -( x - 2) - Original Equation

y = -1 - Subsitute into Original Equation for y

(-1) + 1 = -( x - 2) - Simplify the left side now eith addition and distribute or multiply the negative with both the x and -2

0 = -x + 2 - Move the 2 to the left side to isolate x by subtracting 2 from both sides.

-2 = -x - Divide by a negative (one) on both sides to further isolate x.

2 = x
so x = 2!
Hope that helps!

38+105= 143, 39+104=143, and you will find then adding the numbers on opposite sides, moving inwards yields the answer 138 every time. because of this, you’re going to multiply 138 times the number of pairs, which is 34. therefore, 34*138= 4692(i’m sorry if it’s the wrong numbers, but it’s the right concept)
