To find the slope of the line containing the pair of points, subtract y2 to y1 and divide x2-x1.
y2-y1
--------
x2-x1
Step 1. The General Equation of a straight line is
Y = Mx + C where
M is the slope and
C is that point on the y axis where the curve cuts that axis (where x = 0)
In this case we are told that M = (3/4)
Our equation is now Y = (3/4)X + C ••• Equ 1
We are told that this curve passes through Point ( x, y ) = ( 8, -1 ).
Substitute these values of x, and y into Equ 1 to find C.
Y = (3/4)X + C or
( -1 ) = ( 3/4 )*( 8 ) + C or
( -1 ) = ( 6 ) + C or
C = ( - 7 )
Therefore the Equation of the Point Slope curve is
Y = ( 3/4 )X - 7

4.75 lbs of water and 0.25 lbs of sugar is needed to make 5% of syrup.
<u>Solution:</u>
Let us assume that x is the required pounds sugar to make 5% syrup

which is 
On solving we get,
![\Rightarrow\frac{x}{5} =0.05 [5\%=\frac{5}{100}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CRightarrow%5Cfrac%7Bx%7D%7B5%7D%20%3D0.05%20%5B5%5C%25%3D%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7B100%7D%5D)

If the required sugar to make 5% syrup is 0.25 lbs then the remaining quantity in the total sugar syrup would be water. That is,

So, the required amount is 0.25 lbs of sugar and 4.75 lbs of water.
