D. y = 9 because it has a complete zero slope while the y-intercept of the equation is 9, so the equation is y = 9.
35x - 63 + 4x
35x + 4x -63
39x - 63
13/8 = 1 5/8
Since 13/8 = 1 5/8, A and B cannot be correct.
5/8 > 1/2
Since 5/8 > 1/2, 13/8 is closer to 2 than to 1. Therefore, the answer is D. closer to 2 than to 1.
