Fisrt let us define the variableslet y be the total cost melinda paysx be the number of games she playedb be the cost of shoe rentalm is the cost of one game
y = mx + b
y = 4(3) + by = 12 + b
Answer:
The equation of line is: 
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find an equation of the line that passes through the points (-6, -2) and (-3, 2)?
The equation of line in slope-intercept form is: 
where m is slope and b is y-intercept.
We need to find slope and y-intercept.
Finding Slope
Slope can be found using formula: 
We have 
Putting values and finding slope

So, we get slope: 
Finding y-intercept
Using point (-6,-2) and slope
we can find y-intercept

So, we get y-intercept b= 6
Equation of required line
The equation of required line having slope
and y-intercept b = 6 is

Now transforming in fully reduced form:

So, the equation of line is: 
It's very easy... just do 36/4.
36/4= 9.
12a)
5x + 45 + 3x - 25 = 180
8x + 20 = 180
8x = 160
x = 20
12b)
2x - 5 = 2(20) - 5 = 40 - 5 = 35
3x - 25 = 3(20) - 25 = 60 - 25 = 35
y = 180 - (35+35)
y = 180 - 70
y = 110
