Answer 1

Answer:

8x + 3y = -47

Step-by-step explanation:

    1. Use the y = mx + b form to find b:

$y=-\frac{3}{8} x+b\\-4=\frac{3}{8}(5)+b\\-32=15+8b\\-47=8b\\-\frac{47}{8} =b$

    2. Plug in b for the new equation:

$y=-\frac{3}{8} x-\frac{47}{8}$

    3. Get rid of the denominators and simplify everything into standard form

    (ax + by = c)

$y=-\frac{3}{8} x-\frac{47}{8}\\8y=-3x-47\\3x+8y=-47$
