If the line is parallel, it has the same slope. So now just find the y intercept and put it into slope-intercept form
Answer:
The range is 19
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you have to order the numbers from least to greatest:
-9.5, -3.1, 3.1, 3.2, 4.7, 4.9, 5.4, 6.3, 9.5
Then, you have to find the difference between the largest number and and smallest number. You do this by subtracting them:
9.5 - (-9.5)= 19
So, the range is 19
Check the picture below.
now, we're making an assumption that, the two blue shaded region are equal in shape, and thus if that's so, that area above the 14 is 6 and below it is also 6, 14 + 6 + 6 = 26.
so hmm if we simply get the area of the trapezoid and subtract the area of the yellow triangle and the area of the cyan triangle, what's leftover is what we didn't subtract, namely the shaded region.

The answer is D.
The full specification of Newton's First Law is (from Wikipedia)
In an inertial frame of reference, an object either remains at rest or continues to move at a constant velocity, unless acted upon by a force.
On earth we're generally in slightly a non-inertial frame, with rotation and revolution around the sun. It's also impossible to turn of gravity, so objects are being acted upon by an outside force. Typically there's also the outside force of friction, which makes things tend to stop.
The velocity, slope, of a line is always (y2-y1)/(x2-x1), in this case:
slope=(8-2)/(7-9)=6/-2=-3
m=-3
