Answer:

y=(-27/34)x+1.412

Explanation:

Building of facundo3141592's answer, the beginning part is correct. The point of intersection between the two lines is (4.8, -2.4)

He got the slope part right, but the answer isn't 0.794, its -27/34. (he forgot the negative) The y intercept is totally wrong. The y-intercept is 1.412 So the answer is y=(-27/34)x+1.412

I hope this helps!

Graph this equation on Desmos and you will see that it first all the criteria
