Hey, hope you're doing great today :)

Let's learn about what we need to learn to solve our equation.

We need to make this into a y=mx+b form.

That's the main thing you need to understand while doing this.

Now let's get onto the problem!

This is to much big of an equation to set up, so we need to change some things up.

We need to make one thing into a fraction.

It should look like y = -3/5x + 8.

This is in correct y = mx + b form.

Hopefully that clears things up :)
