Passing through (-8,-8) and Parallel to the line whose equation is y= -3x+2. Write an equation for the line in point slope form.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -3x + 2

Slope = -3

Point: (-8, -8) x=-8 and y = -8

b = y - (m)(x)

b = -8 - (-3)(-8)

b = -8 -24

b = -32

y = -3x - 32

y = -3x-32

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -3x+2

slope: -3

y=mx+b

Plug in (-8,-8)

-8 = -3(-8)+b

-8 = 24 + b

b = -32

y = -3x-32

b

step-by-step explanation:

12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 7 hours.

4: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 3 hours.

this means that from 4: 00 p.m to 7: 00 p.m. this represents 3/7 of what was lost from 12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m.

after knowing this, after doing 11,600 - 6,800 = 4,800

4,800 represents 3/7 of what was lost for 7 hours.

we then divide 4,800 by 3 which gets 1,600.

because we know that 1,600 represents 1/7 of how much water was lost, we just have to multiply by 7, which gets 11,200.   after adding 11,200 to how much water was left at 7: 00 p.m. which was 6,800. 11,200 + 6,800 = 18,000

this means that the pool originally had 18,000 gallons in the pool.

you can also check your work by doing 18,000 - 4(1600), which becomes           1800 - 6400 which gets you 11,600.
