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.

What is the answer to this
NeX [460]
The answer would be the first choice. When you reflect a shape across the x-axis, the y coordinates of every points/vertices become of the opposite of what they usually were.
For example, the y coordinate in (1, -5) {{-5 being the y coordinate) once reflected upon the x axis would be (1, 5).

On the other hand, if the y coordinate were positive it would become negative.

The sum of the square of two consecutive whole number is 25. Find the numbers
Gnom [1K]
Don't you mean "the sum of the squares ..."?
The sum of the squares of two consecutive whole numbers is 25.  Find the numbers.  Let the first be represented by x and the second by x+1.
Then x^2+(x+1)^2=25.  Expanding, x^2+x^2+2x+1=25.
Rewriting this as a quadratic equation in standard form,

2x^2+2x+1=25, or 2x^2+2x-24=0.  Simplifying, x^2+x-12=0.
Factoring, (x-3)(x+4)=0.  Solving for x:  x-3=0, so x=3; x+4=0, so x=-4.
Choose the positive x value:  x=3.  Then the next consecutive number is 2+1=3+1=4.

Check:  Does 3^2 + 4^2 = 5^2 = 25?  Yes.
The numbers are 3 and 4.
