Find an equation of the line passing through the points (−8,2) with the slope m= 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

So we want to find an equation of a line passing through (-8,2) with a slope of 4/3.

To do so, we can use the point-slope form. This is:

So, substitute (-8,2) for x₁ and y₁, and let m be 4/3:

Distribute the right:

Add 2 to both sides. Note that 2 can be written as 6/3. Thus:

Simplify:

And this is our equation :)

the central idea is that:

individuals should refuse to cooperate with institutions they believe unjust.

thoreau felt  that governments were more often agents of corruption than justice, even democracies, and that just because the majority feels a certain way does not make it just or correct in absolute terms. he uses the fact that slavery exists in our democracy to support this idea.

he goes on to say that, as a result, people should live true to their own internal laws regarding right and wrong, as a product of reflection and a moral life, rather than following every law that society imposes.
