Answer:

The answer is Y = 1/2x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The general equation with a slope and intercept is:

y=mx+b

We are given a slope of 1/2, which represents the "M" part of the equation.

So we have:

Y = 1/2x + b

We do not know what "b" is, so the equation is not complete.

We plug in "-2" for X and "8" for Y:

8 = 1/2 (-2) + b

b = 9

So, the full equation is: Y = 1/2x + 9

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

First Olympic held in year 1896.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of Olympiad held in Rio = XXXI = 31st

Difference of years in two consecutive Olympiads = 4 years

Number of years spent in 31 Olympiads can be calculated by,

Number of years spent = (n - 1)d

Here n = number of Olympiads held

d = difference between two consecutive Olympiads

Number of years spent till 31st Olympiads = (31 - 1)×4

= 120 years

Therefore, 1st Olympiad held in the year = 2016 - 120

= 1896
