Answer:
Slope = Y2 -Y1 / X2 - X1
Slope = -1 -3 / 8 --8
Slope = -4 / 16
Slope = -1 / 4
To calculate the equation we fill in this equation:
(y - y1) = slope • (x -x1)
We only need to choose 1 point so we'll choose (-8, 3)
(y - 3) = -1 / 4 * (x --8)
So the Equation equals
y = -1 / 4 x -2 + 3
y = -1 / 4x +1

Answer:
The substance decays by 7.5% every year
Step-by-step explanation:
1 Expand
1.4t-0.4t+1.24=5.8
2 Simplify 1.4t-0.4t+1.241.4t−0.4t+1.24 to t+1.24t+1.24
t+1.24=5.8
3 Subtract 1.241.24 from both sides
t=5.8−1.24
4 Simplify 5.8-1.245.8−1.24 to 4.564.56
t=4.56
