Slope is rise over run or Y2 - Y1 divided X2 - X1. The X's and Y's are your coordinate points. It doesn't matter which Y you put down first but remember to choose the X in the same place. Your coordinate points are (0, -1) and (-4, 2)
Your equation will be:
-1 - 2 / 0 - (-4)
-3 / 0 + 4
-3 / 4
Your slope is negative 3/4
Just keep adding 1/6 to the given term and that should help you figure out the rule.
It would be the one with the greater numerator 6/6 would be greater than 5/6
It would be 
, or, in simplest form, 
.
You get this by adding all the marbles to find the total number of marbles. <em>10+7+12+9</em>, which equals <em>38</em>.
You have <u>10 red marbles out of 38 total</u>, so that is represented by !
