Due to the nature of spheres, they are all similar to each other.
Using the formula y=mx+b, you can simplify the equation to y=-4.5x+28 which means that the slope (m) equals -4.5 and the y-intercept (b) equals 28.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Without a second equation relating x and y, we can solve 3x - 1/2y = 2 ONLY for x in terms of y or for y in terms of x:
x in terms of y: Multiply all three terms of 3x - 1/2y = 2 by 2, to eliminate the fraction: 6x - y = 4. Now add y to both sides to isolate 6x: 6x = 4 + y.
Last, divide both sides by 6 to isolate x:
x = (4 + y)/6
y in terms of x:
y = 6x - 4
If you want a numerical solution, please provide another equation in x and y and solve the resulting system.
