a-rule subtract 3 from each input number

b- rule divide each input number by 2

a- Rule: Subtract 3 from each input number

b- Rule: Divide each input number by 2

what is the rule for example: y=3x+1

The rule for the equation y = 3x + 1 is to multiply each input number (x) by 3 and then add 1.

for this :

a- Rule: Subtract 3 from each input number
b- Rule: Divide each input number by 2
??

For the equation y = 3x + 1, the rules would be:

a- Rule: Subtract 3 from each input number (x)
b- Rule: Multiply each input number (x) by 3, and then add 1 to the result.

how about

Rule- multiply each input number by 8, then subtract 2

The rule for the equation would be to multiply each input number by 8 and then subtract 2 from the result.

i mean in the format of 'y = 3x + 1 '

Apologies for the confusion. In the format of 'y = 3x + 1', the rule would be:

Rule: Multiply each input number (x) by 8, then subtract 2 from the result.

Rule- multiply each input number by 8, then subtract 2

write the rule in this format please; 'y = 3x + 1'
