Answer 1

Equation of a straight line:

y = mx + b ------(i)

Step by Step Solution:

Step 1:

m = 0.125, b = - 3

y = (1/8)x + (-3)

y = 0.125x - 3

(Graph is attached)

Answer 2

Explanation:

Formula for any straight line is

y = mx + c

where m = slope, c = constant

Given: y = -3, m = 1/8

Substitute into formula

(y - intercept occurs when x = 0)

-3 = 1/8(0) + c

-3 = 0 + c

c = -3

y = 1/8x - 3
