18. Mercury, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune
Step-by-step explanation:
It can help to plot these temperatures on a number line. The ones farther to the left are less than ones to their right.

18. Reading the graph from right to left, the order greatest to least is ...
Mercury, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune
Not surprisingly, this is the order of these planets outward from the sun.
For this case we have that by definition, the point-slope equation of a line is given by:
Where:
m: It's the slope
b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis
We have two points:
We found the slope:
Thus, the equation is of the form:
We substitute one of the points and find "b":
Finally, the equation is:
