(-24,-2)(-15,-8)
slope = ( - 8 - (-2) / (-15 - (-24) = (-8 + 2) / (-15 + 24) = -6/9 = - 2/3
y = mx + b
slope(m) = -2/3
use any of ur points (-24,-2)...x = -24 and y = -2
now we sub and find b, the y int.
-2 = -2/3(-24) + b
-2 = 16 + b
-2 - 16 = b
-18 = b
so ur equation is : y = -2/3x - 18
now in y = mx + b form, the y int is in the b position
y = mx + b
y = -2/3x - 18
so ur y intercept is -18 or (0,-18) <=====
to find the x int, sub in 0 for y and solve for x
y = -2/3x - 18
0 = -2/3x - 18
2/3x = -18
x = -18 * 3/2
x = - 54/2 = -27....and ur x intercept is -27 or (-27,0) <===

Answer:
51 DVDs
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of DVDs and CDs sold be x each.
<u>Initial</u>
Number of DVDs= 86
Number of CDs= 52
<u>After selling</u>
Number of DVDs= 86 -x
Number of CDs= 52 -x
Given that there are 3 times as many DVDs than CDs left,
86 -x= 3(52 -x)
<em>Expand:</em>
86 -x= 156 -3x
<em>Bring x terms to 1 side, constant to the other:</em>
3x -x= 156 -86
<em>Simplify:</em>
2x= 70
<em>Divide both sides by 2:</em>
x= 35
Amount of DVDs left
= 86 -x
= 86 -35
= 51
