Answer:
V = L^3 where v is volume and L the length of one side
A = 6 * L^2 total area of cube with side L
A = 6 * V^2/3 area of cube expressed in V
A2 / A1 = (V2 / V1)^2/3 6 cancels
A2 / A1 = 8^2/3 = 4 ratio of areas
ANSWER
The equation is

EXPLANATION
Let the equation be

where

is the slope of the line.
We substitute this value to obtain,

Since the line passes through

we can use this point to determine the value of c.
We substitute this point to obtain,



Our equation now becomes

We can write this in standard form as
The third option: uses visual representation of the logical...
Start with 3 one-by-one squares. This represents the '3' in 4t+3
Then draw 4 rectangles that are vertical or horizontal. Make sure the rectangle is longer than it is wide, or vice versa. The longer side is t units long (t is just a placeholder for a number). The shorter side is 1 unit long
The longer thin rectangles have an area of 1*t = t square units. Four of them represent t+t+t+t = 4*t = 4t
The small squares have an area of 1*1 = 1. Three of them represent 1+1+1 = 1*3 = 3
This is one possible way to draw it out. See the attached drawing.
