To find slope, use the equation (y2-y1)/(x2-x1). In your case, the equation is going to look like (-3 - -1)/(5 - -2) or (-3 +1)/(5 + 2), and that simplifies to -2/7.
So I drew a number line , & I placed point e at 1 1/4 . The correct answer will be B . It couldn't be A because if point e was 1/4 to the left of 1 , point e will be located at 3/4 . But because it ask to put point e at 1 1/4 , you would look for 1 & just move up 1/4 .
Answer: it says $18 plus $3. The equation would be y = 3x + 18 like said. And for the other one it’s y = 5x + 12 following the same logic.
I know I’m not helping much but I’m rushing rn. Hope this helps?
