Answer

$$y=\frac{8}{(3x+5)^2}+1$$

Work Step by Step

$$\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{-48}{(3x+5)^3}$$ $$dy=\frac{-48}{(3x+5)^3}dx$$ $u=3x+5$ $du=3dx$ $-16du=-48dx$ $$\int dy=\int -16u^{-3} du$$ $$y=8u^{-2}+C$$ $$y=\frac{8}{u^2} +C$$ $$y=\frac{8}{(3x+5)^2} +C$$ We are given that the graph of y passes through the point $(-1,3)$. Now we must plug in these values in order to find the value of $C$. $3=\frac{8}{(-3+5)^2} +C$ $3=\frac{8}{4} +C$ $C=1$ $$y=\frac{8}{(3x+5)^2} +1$$
