Combine like terms
2x^2 + -7x^2 = -5x^2
-9x + 4x = -5x
3 + -2 = 1
put back together
-5x^2 - 5x +1
You would circle the 3 in 31, the 9 in 94, and the 1 in 17
So you will use slope formula which is m = (y2 -- y1) / (x2 -- x1)
-1 minus -7=6
13 minus -8=21
Remember it changes to a positive Keep,Change,Change
So its 6/21
Or 1/4

The elevation represents a distance from the sea level greater than 5 feet,
because the original description specifies a distance greater than 5 feet
below sea level.
Reasons:
The elevation given as a distance is the height or distance above sea level.
In the above description, elevation is a vector, given that it has both
magnitude (distance) and direction (above sea level).
Distance is a scalar quantity, that has only a magnitude that specifies the
space covered during motion.
An elevation of less than -5 feet indicates that distance of the location
above sea level is less than -5 feet, which is the same as; the distance of
the location below sea level is greater than 5 feet.
- Less than -5 feet above sea level = Greater than 5 feet below sea level
Therefore;
- An elevation of less than -5 feet represents a distance from (below) sea level greater than 5 feet
