Answer:
Kayla, learn this, :D more math is based on it. Just learn it, just memorize the following
Step-by-step explanation:
m = slope
m = rise / run
m = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1 ( this is still rise over run but in point form )
they give us two points to plug into the above formula
P1 = (-4, 8 ) in the form of ( x1, y 1 )
P2 = (2, -1) in the form of (x2, y2 )
now plug those into the above formula
m = ( -1 - 8 ) / ( 2-(-4) )
m = -9 / ( 2 + 4 )
m = -9 / 6
m = - 3/2
since we know the slope now , we can use the point slope equation of
y - y1 = m ( x - x1)
use the m we found and either point , P1 or P2
y - 8 = -3/2(x -(-4) )
y-8 = -3/2(x + 4)
y-8 = -3/2x - 6
y = -3/2x -6 + 8
y = -3/2x + 2
there you go :)

To answer this question, you need to find the area of the divided land that the farmer want. Since it was a square with 1/4 mile length then the area would be:
1/4 mile * 1/4 mile= 1/16 miles square.
Then you can divide the total area of land the farmer buys, with the area of divided land. The calculation would be: (1/2 square miles) / (1/16 square miles)= 16/2=8 pieces of field
The answer to your question is: B
