when you multiply a number by a value that's greater than 1, that number increases, for example 2 and then we multiply it like 2 * 3, clearly 2*3 is greater than 2.
now when you multiply a number by a value that's lesser than 1, that number decreases, for example 2 and then we multiply it by something like 1/4, so 2 * 1/4 = 1/2, well, clearly 1/2 is smaller than 2, so 1/2 is a decreased value of 2.

we have here 4/7, and then a product, well, the product is 4/7 and 9/10, however 9/10 is less than 1, recall 1 = 10/10, 9/10 is just a tiny bit less than 1.
because we're multiplying 4/7 by some amount less than 1, the product is a smaller value than 4/7, thus

we have here 5/6 and we multiply it by 7/7, wait a minute!!! 7/7 = 1, we're really just multiplying 5/6 by 1 then, what does that give us? well, 5/6 * 1 = 5/6, just the number itself,
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I’m assuming that the equation is to be written in slope intercept form (y=mx+b), so for this, you want to find the slope and y-intercept. To find the slope, use the equation in picture 1.
0 - 5 = -5
1 - 5 = -4
-5 / -4 = 1.25
So m, or the slope, is equal to 1.25.
To find the y-intercept, make a table like the second picture. Choose one of the ordered pairs as the given. I used 1,0.
0,?
1,0
Now find the change in x, which in this case, is 1. Then set up something like picture three.
1.25/1 = ?/1
?=1.25
Now backtrack to get:
0, -1.25
1, 0
Now we know what is y when x is 0, we know the y intercept and can make the equation:
y = 1.25x - 1.25
