Y= -2x-8
if I helped, please give me brainliest
The equation of a line in the slope intercept form is expressed as
y = mx + c
Where
m represents slope
c represents y intercept
The equation of the given line is expressed as
3x - 6y = 30
Rearranging it so that it will look like the slope intercept form, it becomes
6y = 3x - 30
Dividing both sides by 6, it becomes
6y/6 = 3x/6 - 30/6
y = x/2 - 5
Looking at the equation, slope, m = 1/2
If two lines are parallel, it means that they have equal slope. This means that the slope of the line parallel to the given line is 1/2
To determine the y intercept, c of the line passing through the point (4, - 9), we would substitute
x = 4, y = - 9 and m = 1/2 into the slope intercept equation. It becomes
- 9 = 1/2 * 4 + c
- 9 = 2 + c
c = - 9 - 2
c = - 11
By substtuting m = 1/2 and c = - 11 into the slope intercept equation, the equation of the line would be
y = x/2 - 11

First, we define the variables:
x: number of years after 1950
f (x): amount of vinyl sold.
Then, with the variables defined, we have:
68594 vinyl records were sold in 1958 ---------> f (8) = 68594
91299 vinyl records were sold in 1961 ---------> f (11) = 91299
38720 vinyl records were sold in 1952 ---------> f (2) = 38720
161743 vinyl records were sold in 1967 ---------> f (17) = 161743
