9(-5x - 6y +8 distribute property

x=-7

step-by-step explanation:

x+3=-10

-10+3=-7

x=-7

y = 3x+4

step-by-step explanation:

to find the slope

slope = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

    = (-8-4)/ (-4-0)

    = -12/-4

  = 3

using the slope intercept form of a line

y= mx+b

we know the slope is 3

we know the y intercept is 4 ( the point where it crosses the y axis or x=0)

y = 3x+4

the battle of gettysburg is considered the "high water mark" of the confederacy because it marked the greatest advance of the confederate forces against the union.
