What is the equation for the line with a slope of - 2/3 that passes through (0, -2)

y= -2/3x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have a point and a slope, we can use the point slope formula

m is the slope. In this case, m is -2/3

y1 is the y coordinate of the point. In this case, it is -2

x1 is the x coordinate. In this case it is 0.

We can substitute these values into the formula

y- -2= -2/3(x-0)

Distribute -2/3

y+2 = -2/3*x + -2/3*0

y+2= -2/3x+0

Subtract 2 from both sides. We want to get y by itself. This is because we want our line to be in y=mx+b form.

y+2-2= -2/3x+0-2

y= -2/3x -2

let x be the money she spent so that she can earn the free t-shirt.

since, she already spent $112.49

⇒

also, as per the statement: jennifer must spend $250 or more in order to qualify for a free t-shirt at the store.

then,

we have an inequality i.,e

subtract 112.49 from both sides we get;

therefore, $137. 51 more money does jennifer need to spend so that she can earn the free t-shirt
