Answer:
If this is what I think it is then your answer is 4x + 8 = -20
Step 1:
Add rent & car payments
=11,250+1422
=$12,672
Step 2:
to determine %, set up a proportion
12,672 is to his total of 39,600 as x is to 100
12,672/39,600 = x/100
cross multiply
(12,672)(100) = (39,600)(x)
1,267,200= 39,600x
divide both sides by 39,600
32%= x
OR
Alternative Step 2:
12,672 ÷ 39,600= 0.32
Alternative Step 3:
0.32 x 100 = 32%
or move decimal to the right 2 places
His rent and car payments are 32% of his earnings.
Hope this helps! :)

Answer:
Graphing
Step-by-step explanation:
1) You can graph this equation by using y=mx+b. You can replace that equation with y=3x-1.
M=3
X=x
B=-1
On a graph you would down 1 since it's negative and make a point. Then you would put a 1 under the 3 to make it a fraction. 3/1. Then you would divide 1 by 3 (1 ÷ 3). Then you would go to the right 0.33 because it's positive, and the up 1. Then you would make a second point.
This would only give you one line which wouldn't give you an intersection.
