Answer:
D. 4
Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:
A.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the two points (2,7) and (4,-1). In order to determine the linear equation, we need to find the slope and the y-intercept. First, find the slope <em>m.</em> Let (2,7) be x1 and y1, and let (4,-1) be x2 and y2:

Thus, the slope is -4.
Now, to find the y-intercept, we can use the point-slope form. Recall that the point slope form is:

Where (x1, y1) is a coordinate pair and m is the slope.
Use either of the two coordinate pair. I'm going to use (2,7). Substitute them for x1 and y1, respectively:

This is also slope-intercept form. The answer is A.
Multiply the numbers being added then add the first number. 4X1=4, 4+1=5.
2X5=10, 10+2=12. 11X8=88, 88+8=96. I'm not sure how to get 40, though.
Hope I could help.
To do this we take the outlier off the parenthesis (the 4) and multiply it by the two numbers inside the parenthesis...
4*7 + 4*8
28+32
