If you divide the area of the rectangle by the length (44÷5.5) the answer is 8. Your answer is 8 ft.
Neither one will ever hit the axis I think? if its x=3.5 then its horizontal but its above the x axis. Same with the second one. its vertical and will never hit the y axis. Not sure how to write that into those boxes but I think there isn't an intercept.
Hi there!
So the format of slope-intercept form is:
y= mx+b
m= your slope
x = just a variable
b= your y- intercept
Using those hints, see if you can figure out the answer! :)
Hope this helped!

If you're super stuck, your answer would be:
Slope: -7
Y- intercept: 12
