Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll use the standard equation y=mx+b to solve this problem. m is the slope of the line and b is the y intercept.

We know the slope, but we have to solve for the y intercept. To do this (I mean solve for 'b'), we need to know the slope, x value, and y value. We know the slope (-2/3), x= -3, and y=8. Let's plug this into y=mx+b and solve for b.

y=mx+b\\8=-\frac{2}{3}*-3 +b\\8=2+b\\b=8-2\\b=6

Let's plug all of this back into the first equation y=mx+b.

y=mx+b\\y=-\frac{2}{3}x+6

That's the answer to this problem.

I hope this helps.

Leokris [45]
First we need to determine the circumference of the bath.

Circumference = Diameter X pi 

6(pi) = 18.84 feet

and the girls want to put perches that are at least 3 feet between each other so you can just divide the circumference by 3 

18.84 / 3 = 6.28 so 6

If you don't understand the concept then think of it like this, if you have in total 18.84 feet and you want to place something down every 3 feet then start subtracting 3 from your total till you can't add anymore perches. 

18 - 3 = 15
15 - 3 = 12
12 - 3 = 9
9 - 3 = 6
6 - 3 = 3
3 - 3 = 0

We subtracted 3, SIX times so we added 6 perches
