Answer:

y = -2x -1

Step-by-step explanation:

slope intercept form is y = mx +b

m = slope, b = y intercept

point is given as ordered pair (x,y)

plug in slope into y=......

y= -2x+b

plug in the point

3 = -2 * (-2) + b

3= 4 +b subtract 4 on each side

b = -1

y = -2x -1

Lucy used 3 gal of paint to cover 900 ft. She needs to cover a total of 1,100 ft?.

insens350 [35]

Step-by-step explanation:

3 gal = 900 ft

... gal = 1100 ft

So, each gal is used for cover 300 ft,

Then,

$\sf \frac{1100}{900} \times 3 = \frac{11}{3} = \boxed{ \bold{ \red{3 \frac{2}{3} \: gal}}}$

We need <u>3 2/3 gal</u> to cover 1100 ft.

Hope it helps!
