Answer: y = 5x − 11

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + c

Where c = intercept

Slope, m =change in value of y on the vertical axis / change in value of x on the horizontal axis represent

change in the value of y = y2 - y1

Change in value of x = x2 -x1

y2 = final value of y

y 1 = initial value of y

x2 = final value of x

x1 = initial value of x

The line passes through (3,4) and (2, -1),

y2 = - 1

y1 = 4

x2 = 2

x1 = 3

Slope,m = (- 1 - 4)/(2 - 3) = - 5/- 1 = 5

To determine the y intercept, we would substitute x = 3, y = 4 and m= 5 into

y = mx + c. It becomes

4 = 5 × 3 + c

4 = 15 + c

c = 4 - 15 = - 11

The equation becomes

y = 5x - 11

Changing the equation into slope form: y = mx + c, where m is the slope [gradient] and c is the y-intercept.

2x+3y=1470
3y = -2x+1470
y= - \frac{2}{3}x+ \frac{1470}{3}
y=- \frac{2}{3}x+490

The gradient is - \frac{2}{3} and y-intercept is at y=490

Graphing y=- \frac{2}{3}x+490 using slope-intercept method:
a) The slope is a negative slope. The line will go 'down hill'
b) The line must pass the point (0, 490)
c) The line will intercept the x-axis at y = 0
    0 = - \frac{2}{3}x+490
    \frac{2}{3}x = 490
    2x = 1470
    x = \frac{1470}{2}
    x = 735
    So, x-intercept is at (735, 0)

The graph of this function is shown below. The intercepts are labelled at:
y = 490
x = 735

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Next month's profit equation

2x+3y=1593

Rewriting this into slope-equation form

3y = -2x+1593
y=- \frac{2}{3}+ \frac{1593}{3}
y= - \frac{2}{3}+531

The gradient, m, equals to - \frac{2}{3}
The y-intercept, c, equals to 531

The equation still has the same gradient with last month's profit equation but different y-intercept. 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A linear graph show points of (0, 300) and (450, 0)

We work out the slope: 
\frac{300-0}{0-450} = \frac{300}{-450}=- \frac{20}{30}  =- \frac{2}{3}


Y-intercept at x = 0, so it's at y = 300

Equation y = - \frac{2}{3}+300
