First of all you know it wiill be a positive slope as both the rise and the run are negative. a negative divided by a negative equals a positive. so you can plot the points (2,3) and (-2,-3) as they will be points on this line. next you take a straight line and place it so that both points are intercepted. then extend the line outwards.

72 students signed up for canoeing + the 23 students who signed up for trekking + the 13 students who signed up for both = 108 students
there are 120 students total, so you have to subtract 120 - 108 = 12
Now to find the percentage, you have to divide the number of students who didn't sign up for either, by the total
which is .1 = 10/100 = 10%
Wren's bedroom is 12 feet long x 10 feet wide. She plans to purchase carpet for the entire room. The carpet costs $25 per square meter. What are the dimensions in meters? Round each to nearest tenths place.
There are 3.28084 feet in a meter.
12*3.28084=39.30078
10*3.28084=32.8084
Length:39.3
Width:32.8
8x + 15 = 31
Or
16 + 15 = 31
Not entirely sure if this is what you were asking for but I hope this helps!
Answer:

move the 'x' factors to the LHS and constants to the RHS
5x+4x= -5-5
9x = -10
x = -10/9
= -1 1/9
