To begin this problem, we need to use the two points that we are given to find the slope of the line. Slope is defined as the change in y values divided by the change in x values, or rise/run, and is represented by the variable m.

m = (y1-y2)/(x1-x2) = (8-0)/(3-6) = 8/(-3) = -8/3

Now, we can use the slope and one of the points from our given values to create an equation of the line in point-slope form.

y = m(x-h) + k, where a point on the line is (h,k)

y = -8/3(x - 3) + 8

Now, we can distribute our slope and simplify through addition.

y = -8/3x + 8 + 8

y = -8/3x + 16

Therefore, your answer is y = -8/3x + 16.

Hope this helps!

EQUATION OF A LINE IS Y-Y¹ =m(X-X¹)
WHERE M IS SLOPE
SO
EQUATION OF LINE IS Y-0={(8-0)/(3-6)}[X-6]

¶¶ Y= (-8/3)(X-6)
HERE YOU GO---- {3Y+8X-48=0}

HOPE THIS IS HELPFUL

carol is excited to get a new kitten from the animal shelter. the kitten had an $299 adoption fee. carol had $50 off coupon for
Molodets [167]

Answer:

1 month

Step-by-step explanation:

249 is the amount she spends for buying the kitten, (299-50=249) which she only has to pay once.

20 is the amount she has to spend every month, the rate of change.

The problem can be modeled with the general equation:

y = 20x + 249

In this equation, x the the time in months and y is the amount of money spent.

Substitute 250 for y.

y = 20x + 249

250 = 20x + 249    <= isolate x to get the number of months

1 = 20x

x = 1/20

Carol will only spent money every month, not for 1/20 of a month.

It will only take Carol 1 month to spent $250.

Check answer:

Substitute x for 1

y = 20x + 249

y = 20(1) + 249

y = 269

269 is more than 250 already.
