Answer: y=-3/4x

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope intercept form is when you use the equation y=mx+b (m is the slope and b is the y-intercept). First, let's find the y intercept. The y intercept is what y would be if x is 0. here, you can see that this particular line passes through the origin. So, the y-intercept is zero because when x passes through zero, y is also zero. Next, let's find the slope. The formula for slope is change in y/change in x. Let's randomly choose 2 points off this line. To make this a thousand times easier for us, let's choose the points (-4, 3) and (4, -3). Now, to find the change in y, let's find the difference between the 2 y coordinates we have chosen. To do this we just need to do -3-3, which gives us -6. Now let's find the change in x. To do this we will do the same thing we did to find the change in y but this time we'll use the x coordinates. We will do 4-(-4), which simplifies to 8. Now, we're almost done. Just divide the change in y by the change in x. You will get -6/8. This can be simplified to -3/4. So now we know our slope is -3/4 and our y-intercept is 0. Let's insert them into the equation. y=-3/4x+0. We know that we can just get rid of that 0 because 0 literally means nothing. So our final answer is y=-3/4x. Hope this helps!

A group of tourists spends $156 to rent snorkels and fins. A total of 15 snorkels and 18 pairs of fins are rented. Renting a sno
Bas_tet [7]
You could use many methods to find the answer to this problem, but I am going to use the most efficient one I know.
18f+15(4f)=156
F is for fins. We should now solve the equation.
18f+60f=156
78f=156
156÷78=2
So fins cost 2 dollars. Now, we know snorkels cost four times the amount of fins. Four times 2 is eight. So the snorkels cost $8 to rent. Let's check our math.
15(8) + 18(2)
120+36=156
So it cost $8 to rent a snorkel.
