You've got five different problems in this photo ... four on top and the word problem on the bottom ... and they're all exactly the same thing: Taking two points and finding the slope of the line that goes through them.
In every case, the procedure is the same.
If the two points are (x₁ , y₁) and (x₂ , y₂) , then
the slope of the line that goes through them is
Slope = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁) .
This is important, and you should memorize it.
#1). (8, 10) and (-7, 14)
Slope = (14 - 10) / (-7 - 8) = 4 / -15
#2). (-3, 1) and (-17, 2)
Slope = (2 - 1) / (-17 - -3) = (2 - 1) / (-17 + 3) = 1 / -14
#3). (-20, -4) and (-12, -10)
Slope = [ -10 - (-4) ] / [ -12 - (-20) ]
=========================================
The word problem:
This question only gives you one point on the graph,
and then it wants to know what's the slope ?
What are you going to do for another point ?
A "proportional relationship" always passes through the origin,
so another point on the line is (0, 0) .
Now you have two points on THAT line too, and you can easily
find its slope.

Answer: b = 4 and c = 7.</h3>
===============================================
Explanation:
Comparing y = x^2+bx+c to y = ax^2+bx+c, we see that a = 1.
The vertex given is (-2,3). In general, the vertex is (h,k). So h = -2 and k = 3.
Plug those three values into the vertex form below
y = a(x-h)^2 + k
y = 1(x-(-2))^2 + 3
y = (x+2)^2 + 3
Then expand everything out and simplify
y = x^2+4x+4 + 3
y = x^2+4x+7
We see that b = 4 and c = 7.
Answer:
45 degree angle
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say that the line crossing the middle of quadrant four was on the y-axis, that would be known as a 90 degree angle. Since it was cut in half, that would become a 45 degree angle.
The maximum data rate of that modem is doubled if the number of points in its constellation were doubled
According to statement
Modem has a data rate is 14,400 bps
we know that the data rate can be calculated by T=A/S
If a is Doubled then the data rate is also doubled.
Because A is directly proportional to the T and S is inversely proportional to T.
So, The maximum data rate of that modem is doubled if the number of points in its constellation were doubled
