Since x=8/3 is a vertical line,the slope is undefined,
First of all, to find the slope, you need to subtract the y's in the numerator over the x's in the denominator. Then you use Y-Y₁=slope(X-X₁) using either of the two points. If you want to simplify it further into slope-intercept form, you need to distribute on the right side of the equation.
(750m) - 1050 = b
1800 - 1050 = 750 dollars lost.
So (750m) - 1050 = b will give you the balance.
1. Total
2. Deficit

Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The sides are in proportion.
The proportion is 20/36
The other sides must be in the same proportion: 5x / 45
5x/45 = 20/36 You can reduce the left side by dividing top and bottom by 5
1x / 9 = 20/36 You can reduce the right side by dividing by 4
x / 9 = 5/9 at this point you should be able to see that x = 5, because the denominators are the same.
That is the answer.
However you can extend this by cross multiplying
9x = 45 Divide by 9
x = 45/9
x = 5
