Answer: y= - 2/3x+6

Step-by-step explanation:

Just plug in values into this equation (slope intercept form)

y=mx+b

3 is x value

4 is y value

m is the slope which is - 2/3

So after you plug in the values, solve for b ("b" is the y intercept):

4=-2/3(3)+b

4=-2+b

b=6

Then add in the b value into your equation and you will get y= - 2/3x+6

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

<, > - open circle

≤, ≥ - solid circle

<, ≤ - draw to the left

>, ≥ - draw to the right

$3-x\geq2\qquad\text{subtract 3 from both sides}\\\\-x\geq-1\qquad\text{change the signs}\\\\\boxed{x\leq1}\\\\4x+2\geq10\qquad\text{subtract 2 from both sides}\\\\4x\geq8\qquad\text{divide both sides by 4}\\\\\boxed{x\geq2}$
