It is a.1
(1+5) - 2(4(1)-1) = 0
(6) - 2(3) = 0
6 - 6 = 0
0=0
1: Assuming this line is linear, the first thing to do is find the slope.
The slope formula is

, so in this case, it is

, which comes to

. Then, use your slope and one of the points given to write the point-slope formula of the linear equation, and then written in standard form:
y=

x-

.
2. Use the same process as in question 1 to find:
y=-7x+11
X intercept (-10,0)
y intercept (0,-5)
