Use PEMDAS to figure out which expression to work out first:
Parentheses
Exponents
Multiplication/Division
Addition/Subtraction
First, we'll want to solve the term with parentheses:

The equation should now look like this:

Divide to get your answer:

The answer is 0.75.
Answer: 8
Step-by-step explanation: Found the ratio of 6/12, which is 1/2, so I used ?/16, plugged it in.
Answer:
The point slope form of the line would be y + 4 = 2/3(x - 8) and the equation of the line would be y = 2/3x - 28/3
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the point-slope form of the line, start with the base form of point-slope form. Then input the point we have and the slope in the appropriate places.
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - -4 = 2/3(x - 8)
y + 4 = 2/3(x - 8)
Now to find the slope intercept form, you simply need to solve for y.
y + 4 = 2/3(x - 8)
y + 4 = 2/3x - 16/3
y = 2/3x - 28/3
