Easy question.
So, the slope is -x and the y-intercept is at -4.
y = -x - 4
Use this equation and you will find:
y = -2 - 4
y = -6
Answer: (2, -6)
y>3x+6
y>4/3x-5 <- (The sign is greater than or equal to btw)
You didnt include the (presumably) multiple choice answers. My guess is that the answer would be along the lines of: 20 - (P times .40)
Every linear graph is just a straight line, so if there are any curves or unnatural shapes, than you know it is not linear. As for equations, if it can be shaped into y=mx+b where m and b are numbers, then it will be a linear equation.

3x + -8 = 31
Reorder the terms:
-8 + 3x = 31
Solving
-8 + 3x = 31
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '8' to each side of the equation.
-8 + 8 + 3x = 31 + 8
Combine like terms: -8 + 8 = 0
0 + 3x = 31 + 8
3x = 31 + 8
Combine like terms: 31 + 8 = 39
3x = 39
Divide each side by '3'.
x = 13
Simplifying
x = 13</span>
