draw a diagram of this statement
fifteen thousand dollars was raised by the booster club. this was two thirds of
the goal.
use your diagram to determine the percent by which the booster club fell short
of their goal.

its less than 713.21 but greater than 5.2

answer: the value of b is 24 + 3t / (4- t ) = b

solution:

step 1 : find the slope using the formula below with the c (t, 3) and d(4, -3)

m = y2-y1 / x2 - x1

m = -3 -3 / 4-t

m = -6/4-t

to find the value of   b use the equation given in the question

note : use any of the pair given c or d in the equation to find the value of b i will be using d ( 4, -3)

y = mx+ b

3 = (-6/4-t)(4) + b don't forget to take the lcm

b = (36 - 3 t ) / ( 4 - t )
