Read the excerpt from Barrio Boy by Ernesto Galarza.
We stayed only one day at the hotel, long enough for me to become acquainted with the bathtub, located in another closet next to the toilet. A rope of water twisted and whirled from a brass faucet, filling the tub. I sat in the cold water up to my neck and discovered that I could slide down the back of the tub and hit the bottom with a great splash. When my water party was interrupted, both the bathroom and I got a scrubbing.
After reading this excerpt, readers can infer that .....
A) Ernesto gets in trouble for his messy splashing
B) Ernesto has sour muscles and needs to soak in cold water
C) The hotel is very expensive because it has a modern bathroom
D) the bathroom is dangerous for a young and inexperience child

ACCESS TO THE SCHOOL E-LIBRARY
Dear Sir,
Yesterday I needed to make some research on a school project and when I tried to access the school's e-library, I found out that I was unable to do so. I tried to source the information elsewhere but the results were less than satisfactory.
I implore you to look into this issue because my case is not an isolated one. Other students were unable to access the e-library yesterday. This has greatly hampered our research progress.
Thank you for your understanding and anticipated response.
Yours faithfully,
Emmanuel Anyaoha.
Answer:
slope: -5
y-intercept: 6
Explanation:
this is in slope-intercept form already, which is:
y = mx + b
where m = slope and b = y-intercept
so, -5 = slope and 6 = y-intercept :)
