Slope-int form: y=mx+b
1. substitute the slope and x and y points in the equation. 3=-3/4(8)+b
2. simplify the equation. 3=-6+b
3. isolate the variable to solve for the y-intercept. b=9
4. substitute the slope and y-intercept to get the final equation. y=-3/4x+9

Answer:

$V(t) = b^{(1-e^{-at})}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

$\displaystyle\frac{dV}{dt} = a (In b - In V) V$

where a > 0 and b > 0.

$\displaystyle\frac{dV}{dt} = a (In b-In V) V\\\\\displaystyle\frac{dV}{dt} = -aV(ln\frac{V}{b})\\\\\frac{dV}{V(ln\frac{V}{b})} = (-a)dt\\\\\text{Put } ln\frac{V}{b} = z\\\\\text{Integrating both sides}\\\\\int \frac{dV}{V(ln\frac{V}{b})} = \int (-a)dt\\\\\text{We get}\\\\\int \frac{dz}{z} = \int (-a)dt\\\\\\\text{where C is the constant of integration}$
