Y = mx + b
slope(m) = 3/4
(5,-4)...x = 5 and y = -4
now we sub
-4 = 3/4(5) + b
-4 = 15/4 + b
-4 - 15/4 = b
-16/4 - 15/4 = b
- 31/4 = b....or - 7 3/4 = b
so ur equation is : y = 3/4x + (-31/4) or y = 3/4x - 31/4
<u>Answer:</u>
- 6. 6.75
- 7. 27
- 8. 92/17
- 9. 49
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
<u>- Question 6 -</u>
- 9/16 = x/12
- => 16x = 12 x 9
- => 16x = 108
- => x = 6.75
Hence, <u>the value of x in this proportion is 6.75.</u>
<h3>_______________________________</h3>
<u>- Question 7 -</u>
- -3 + x/18 = 12/9
- => -3/18 + x/18 = 4/3
- => x/18 = 4/3 + 1/6
- => x/18 = 8/6 + 1/6
- => x/18 = 9/6
- => x = 9/6 x 18
- => x = 27
Hence, <u>the value of x is 27</u>
<h3>_______________________________</h3>
<u>- Question 8 -</u>
17/15 = 10/2x - 2
=> 17(2x - 2) = 150
=> 34x - 34 = 150
=> 34x = 184
=> x = 184/34
=> x = 92/17
Hence, <u>the value of x is 92/17</u>
<h3>_______________________________</h3>
<u>- Question 9 -</u>
- x - 16/x + 6 = 3/5
- => 5(x - 16) = 3(x + 6)
- => 5x - 80 = 3x + 18
- => 2x = 98
- => x = 49
Hence, <u>the value of x is 49.</u>

Hoped this helped.
The only thing you need to do is to plug in x to get y.hope this helps if it does please mark brainliest
Answer: Probability that both the pirate and the Captain hit each other's ships is 
Step-by-step explanation:
since we have given that
Probability that the captain hits the pirate ship is given by
Probability that the pirate hits the Captains's ship is given by
So, we have to find the "Probability that both the pirate and the Captain hit each other's ship" is given by
Hence, probability that both the pirate and the Captain hit each other's ships is
