@HeyItsZia1 are you there??

victoriasushchik · Answer

1.
2x + 3y = 1200
2x-1200=-3y
1/3*(2x-1200)=1/3*-3y
2/3x-400=-y 
-2/3x+400=y

victoriasushchik · Answer

i didyou just have to follow it!

anonymous · Answer

the line will look like $$y=mx+b$$ you need $m$ and $b$
$b$ is the y intercept, which you can see from the graph

thank-you @satellite73

anonymous · Answer

it is definitely not 400 though

victoriasushchik · Answer

satellite can you explain it for her? its hard for me to explain it for her!

anonymous · Answer

maybe

anonymous · Answer

the slope you see from your eyeballs
you do right 450, down 300 slope is $$-\frac{300}{450}$$ before you reduce the fraction
