Answer:
C. 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1) , (x1,y1) = (1,-5) , (x2,y2)=(4,1)
= (1-(-5)) / (4-1)
= (1+5) / 3
= 6/3
= 2

One question at a time, please. I will focus on #16 and ignore #18.
slope: 3/4 line passes thru (-8,2)
Write out y = mx + b. Subst. 2 for y. Subst. -8 for x Subst. (3/4) for m:
2 = (3/4)(-8) + b. Find b. 2 = -6 + b => b = 8
So your equation is y = (3/4)x + 8. Please, use ( ) around those fractions!
Answer:
500 feet because D and B is too close and C is in the middle. I would go with A.
