Equation of the line is slope intercept form correct? Ok, slope intercept is y=MX+b. M is slope, x is the point, and b is the y intercept. If you are trying to find b then plug your x and y values plus your slope and once you have b put that in the equation. After that you could take out the x and y values to put the variables x and y and that's you equation of a line

It’s written in y=mx+b I think
The slope is M
B is where it hits on the y-intercept
Hopefully this helps

An item is regularly priced at 85$. It is on sale for 80% off the regular price. How much is discounted from the regular price?

$68 is discounted from the regular price.

To find this, you first divide 80% by 100 to get 0.8 (the decimal form of the percentage). Then, simply multiply 0.8 by 85 (or vise verse) to get $68. Since the question is asking for how much is discounted from the regular price, the final answer would be $68.

I hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the formula for finding slope for this: $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$
