The answer is actually *C. She mixed up the x and y values.* x2-21/y2-y1 is the equation you need to solve for slope. Therefore the proper equation should be

1-8/17-4

Answer:

Step 1: Set x to 0

$-2(0) + y = 3$

$y = 3$

(0, 3)

Step 2: Set x to 1

$-2(1) + y = 3$

$-2 + y + 2 = 3 + 2$

$y = 5$

(1, 5)

Step 3: Set x to 2

$-2(2) + y = 3$

$-4 + y + 4 = 3 + 4$

$y = 7$

(2, 7)

Step 4: Set x to 3

$-2(3) + y = 3$

$-6 + y + 6 = 3 + 6$

$y = 9$

(3, 9)
