7/x = 5/y
Can be changed to:
5x = 7y
So, x = (7/5)y and
y = (5/7)x

Answer:
y = 1/2x + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the formula for the equation of a line.
y = mx + b
Where m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept.
The slope is given.
y = 1/2x + b
The points (x, y) are given.
(4, 6)
Put y as 6 and x as 4, solve for b.
6 = 1/2(4) + b
6 = 2 + b
6 - 2 = b
4 = b
The y-intercept is 4 or (0, 4).
The equation of the line is y = 1/2x + 4.
Y=2x-3 has a steeper line because the bigger the slope, the more it goes up on the y-axis for every one spot on the x-axis.
The first one goes up 2 spaces for every one it goes over, and the second one goes up one space for every 5 it goes over
