Answer 3

If this is in y=mx+b form I think the equation would look like this: y=-2/3x+300. Not sure though, hope it helps

Answer 4

can you show your work or explain how you got that?

Answer 6

Well 300 is the point at the top left corner and b is the y-intercept so thats fairly obvious, m is the slope which to find you subtract the x's and y's from two points in this case i used (150,200) and (300,100) which give you the slope of -2/3. and x isn't necessary to fill in unless you were completing the equation.
