Answer:

$y - 2 = \frac{2}{3}(x-3)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Point-slope form: y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Slope: $\frac{2}{3}$

Point: (3, 2) = (x1, y1)

To write the equation in point-slope form, we need to know the values of the slope and one point. Since we've already been given those values, all we have to do is input them into the equation:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

$y - 2 = \frac{2}{3}(x-3)$

The equation in point-slope form is: $y - 2 = \frac{2}{3}(x-3)$

Explanation to the answer below... (Answers in the Explanation)

Step-by-step explanation:

We Know that our rule is y = $y = -6(3)^{x}$ , which means we can use this rule to find y from x. Since we don't know what X, is, we have to assume numbers like 1, to 7. And there is no space to write on the graph, I'll put a virtual copy of a graph.

1st Point,

$y = -6(3)^{x}\\y = -6(3)^{1}\\y = -6(3)\\y = -18\\x = 1, y = -18$

2nd, point

$y = -6(3)^x\\ y = -6(3)^2\\y = -6(9)\\y = -54\\x = 2, y = -54$

3rd Point

$y = -6(3)^x\\y = -6(3)^3\\y = -6(27)\\y = -162\\x = 3, y = -162$

4th Point

$y = -6(3)^4\\y = -6(81)\\y = -486\\x = 4, y = -486\\$

5th Point

$y = -6(3)^5\\y = -6(243)\\y = -1458\\\x = 5, y = -1458$

6th Point

$y = -6(3)^x\\y = -6(3)^6\\y = -6(729)\\y = -4,374\\x = 6, y = -4,374\\$

7th Point (Last Point)

$y = -6(3)^x\\y = -6(3)^7\\y = -6(2,187)\\y. = -13,122\\x = 7, y = -13,122$

Let's now plot them on the Graph, the values are so big, the graph might look a little odd.

Always remember that we can continue the points infinitely, and there is no stop, The Graph is attached below...

The equation is y=16(1.35)ˣ.

This equation is of the form y=a(1+r)ˣ, where a is the initial amount, r is the rate of growth expressed as a decimal number, y is the total, and x is the amount of time. For our problem, a is 16; b is 0.35 (35%=35/100=0.35). This gives us the equation above.
