Answer 1

So it's a straight line you need
Y=mx+b
M=slope and B=the y int

Answer 2

slope is y2-y1/x2-x1, so lets take (450,0) as x1,y1 and (0,300) as x2,y2 Those are our two different coordinates we're choosing from our line.

So if we plug that into our slope equation we get m =-300/450 or -2/3

and B = the y-intercept will be 300 since the line intercepts with the y axis at that value

So the answer will be y= (-2/3)x + 300
