Answer:
The number is 48.
Step-by-step explanation:
x/8+3=9
x/8=9-3
x/8=6
x=6*8
x=48
Y=5x - 3
Because the difference in the y values are 5, the rise is 5. That is the TOP of the slope. The difference in the x values is 1, that is the run or the BOTTOM of the slope. So m = 5/1.
Using y = mx + b
2 = 5(1) + b
-3 = b
Therefore, y = 5x -3
