For the equation of the line of the form y = mx + b, m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept which is the value of y when x is equal to zero. The slope is the rate of change of y per change in x. "y" would represent the dependent variable which is the weight of the baby while "x" represents the independent variable which is the number of months or the age of the baby in months. We calculate the slope as follows:
slope = (11 - 9) / ( 4 - 0) = 2/4 = 0.5
at x = 0, it is said that the weight of the baby is 9 lbs so the value of b would be 9.
The equation of the line would be y = 0.5x + 9

The answer is the blue one (the one your mouse is hovering over)
800-20 is 780. A third of 780 is 780(1/3) = 260. 780 - 260 = 520. 25% of $520 is 0.25(520) = 130. 520 - 130 = 390. One sixth of 390 is 390(1/6) = 65. 390 - 65 = 325. So, Bob kept $325 for himself.
The slope is m=9 for the points.
