Y = mx + b
slope(m) = -2
(6,8)...x = 6 and y = 8
now we sub and find b, the y int
8 = -2(6) + b
8 = -12 + b
8 + 12 = b
20 = b
so ur equation is : y = -2x + 20

Answer with explanation:

Slope of Line= -2

The line passes through the point , (6,8).

⇒Equation of line passing through point , (a,b) having slope ,m is

y -b = m (x -a)

⇒≡Equation of line passing through point , (6,8) having slope ,-2 is

→y -8 = -2× (x -6)

→y -8 = -2 x + 12⇒⇒ Using Distributive property of multiplication with respect to Subtraction

→2 x + y= 12 + 8

→2 x + y=20

Required Equation of line.

How do you use proportions to solve percent problems​
exis [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

EXAMPLE #1:

What number is 75% of 4?   (or   Find 75% of 4.)

The PERCENT always goes over 100.

   (It's a part of the whole 100%.)

4 appears with the word of:

   It's the WHOLE and goes on the bottom.

A proportion showing one fraction  with PART as the numerator and 4 as the denominator equal to another fraction with 75 as the numerator and 100 as the denominator.

We're trying to find the missing PART (on the top).

In a proportion the cross-products are equal:   So 4 times 75 is equal to 100 times the PART.

The missing PART equals 4 times 75 divided by 100.

(Multiply the two opposite corners with numbers; then divide by the other number.)

4 times 75 = 100 times the part

300 = 100 times the part

300/100 = 100/100 times the part

3 =   the part

A proportion showing the denominator,  4, times the diagonally opposite 75; divided by  100.

X=-4             you have to substitue first so you put the equation where the X is and then you would distribute and then add the numbers that have the common exponent
