-8400/68 simplifies to to -2100/17, dolphins/year, so 2100 less dolphins every 17 years.
and we can just divide those to get the decimal amount of -123.53, which means, 123.53 less dolphins every year.
of course, there's no such a thing as 0.53 of a dolphin, so, we can say "about" 123 less dolphins per year.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y = 
x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )
with (x₁, y₁ ) =( 8, - 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, - 5)
m = 
= 
=
Note the line crosses the y- axis at (0, - 5 ) ⇒ c = - 5
y = x - 5 ← equation of line
Answer:
2/3 (0,-3) is one possible answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
y -1 = 2/3(x-6) We want to get this into the slope intercept form of a line. We want it to be in the form y = mx + b. Let's clear the fraction first by multiplying the whole equation through by 3.
3(y - 1) = 3[2/3(x - 6)]
3y -3 = 2(x -6)
3y - 3 = 2x -12
3y = 2x - 9 Now divide all the way through by 3 to get
y = 2/3x - 3
y = mx + b. The m part is the slope. In this equation the slope is 2/3
There are in infinite amount of points on a line. I do not know if they give you a picture or if you are just to create your own. I am going to create a point that have x = 0. I get to pick the point. I could pick any number. 0 is just usually really easy. So, if I substitute 0 for x I will get:
y = 2/3(0) - 3
y = 1 so my point is (0,-3)
Now that I think about it, I do not think that I would start out clearing the fraction even though it works. I think that I would do it like this"
y - 1 = 2/3(x - 6) Distribute the 2/3 through (x - 4) to get
y-1 = 2/3x -4 I can make -6 a fraction by putting it over 1. Now we have 2/3(-6/1) multiply across to get -12/3. A positive times a negative is a negative. -12 divided by 3 is -4.
y - 1 = 2/3x -4 now add 1 to both sides.
y = 2/3x -3
Broken down into steps:
1. Find the slope of the line segment that connecs the points (0,-7) and (4,-15).
2. Start with the point-slope formula for the equation of a straight line:
y-b = m(x-a), where the given point is (a,b). Borrow the value of m that you calculated in (1), above, and insert it into this point-slope formula.
Finish up by subst. the x- and y-values in (-3,6) into this formula.
Done!
You could, of course, solve this result for y if you wished.
