8(x+3)
total means addition and times means multiplication so when you put it together you get 8*x+3 and because you want the total of x*3 you put it in parentheses

Hi!
To solve this, we must make an equation in y = mx + b form, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Since we are looking at a graph with points, it saves us a TON of work, and all we have to do is simply look at the graph. We only need to find m and b, that's it!
M is the slope, and the slope can be represented by the change between points on a line, also known as <em>rise/run. </em>
If we start at point (-4, -1), and go to point (-2, 0), we can see that it goes up 1 and right 2, which would be represented as 1/2.
B is the y-intercept, and that is simply the point that is on the y-axis, which is the point (0, 1), so our number would be 1.
Therefore, plugging these numbers into the equation, our equation is y = <em>1/2</em>x + <em>1</em>

Hope this helps! :D
As we know y=3/4x-3
Let's put it in the second equation
3/4x-3=1/4x+1
3/4 x -1/4 x = 1+3
2/4 x = 4
X= 4*4/2
x=8
Put x= 8 in first equation
y= 3/4 *8 -3
y=6-3
y=3
Check the answer
3=3/4 *8 -3
3=6-3
3=3
Correct
So(y, x) = (3,8)
Because x=8 and y=3
