Answer: A linear function with a line heading toward negative infinity as x approaches infinity and with a y-int at (0,8/7)

Explanation:

The line will be linear as you rearrange the function to be y=

You would do this by moving the 3x over to the right side by subtracting both sides by 3x, giving you 7y=-3x+8. From here, you get y by itself by dividing both sides by 7. Giving a final function of
y=-(3)/(7) x+(8)/(7)
