Answer:

y=\frac{-2}{3}x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Linear equations are typically organized in slope-intercept form: y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when the line crosses the y-axis)

<u>1) Determine the slope (m)</u>

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} where the given points (x_1,y_1) are (x_2,y_2)

Plug in the given points (0,8) and (3,6)

m=\frac{6-8}{3-0}\\m=\frac{-2}{3}

Therefore the slope of the line is \frac{-2}{3}. Plug this into y=mx+b:

y=\frac{-2}{3}x+b

<u>2) Determine the y-intercept (b)</u>

y=\frac{-2}{3}x+b

The y-intercept occurs when x=0. One of the given points is (0,8), so therefore, the y-intercept is 8. Plug this into y=\frac{-2}{3}x+b:

y=\frac{-2}{3}x+8

I hope this helps!

How do you do 36 divide by 3 times 4
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

48

Step-by-step explanation:

36 divide by 3 times 4

= 36 ÷ 3 x 4   (By PEDMAS, it doesnt matter which operation you do first, but we'll choose to do division first)

= (36 ÷ 3) x 4

= 12 x 4

= 48
