Answer:
Δ BEC ≅ Δ AED
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider triangles BCA and ADB. Each of them share a common side, AB. Respectively each we should be able to tell that AD is congruent to BC, and DB is congruent to CA, so by SSS the triangles should be congruent.
_________
So another possibility is triangles BEC, and AED. As you can see, by the Vertical Angles Theorem m∠BEC = m∠ADE, resulting in the congruency of an angle, rather a side. As mentioned before AD is congruent to BC, and perhaps another side is congruent to another in the same triangle. It should be then, by SSA that the triangles are congruent - but that is not an option. SSA does is one of the exceptions, a rule that is not permitted to make the triangles congruent. Therefore, it is highly unlikely that triangles BEC and AED are congruent, but that is what our solution, comparative to the rest.
Δ BEC ≅ Δ AED .... this is our solution
-6 + x = -7
+6 +6 add 6 to both sides, 6's cancel out on the left.
________
x = -1, is the answer.

We can see points on the graph:
The function in general form is:
Let's find the slope and y-intercept as per identified points on the graph:
b= y- mx
- b= - 3 -(-5)*2= -3 +10= 7
Based on the found values of m and b, the given line is:
