What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-3, 2) and
has a slope of –2/3

y = -2/3 (x+3) + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

use the point-slope form equation: y - y1 = m (x - x1)

plug in the point (-3,2) and slope -2/3 into the equation:

y - 2 = -2/3 [x - (-3)]

you can simplify it:

y - 2 = -2/3 (x+3)

and you can also put it in terms of y:

y = -2/3 (x+3) + 2

3

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.

sorry if it was confusing!
