Answer:

The equation of the line would be y = 1/8x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the slope intercept form of the line, you must first find the slope. You can do this using the slope formula.

m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (-2 - -4)/(8 - -8)

m = 2/16

m = 1/8

Then you can use this slope along with either point in point-slope form. Then solve for y.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y + 4 = 1/8(x + 8)

y + 4 = 1/8x + 1

y = 1/8x - 3

Can fractions still be considered natural, whole, integers, rational, irrational, or real numbers?

vitfil [10]

Fractions are numbers which can be represented in the form p/q, where p and q are WHOLE NUMBERS and q is not zero Rational numbers are numbers which can be represented in the form p/q where p and q are INTEGERS and q is not zero So your saying " all rational numbers are all numbers that can be represented as a fraction." is wrong....... all fractions are rational numbers but NOT ALL rational numbers are fractions..
