I don't really understand this??....

Answer:
Part 1
its asking you to find the slope of the given lines by using the points that they have plotted on the lines
first you need to figure out what the points are, then insert it into the formula
the formula for this would be
Part 2:
its asking you to find the slope using the points that are written in each box
again, just substitute it into the formula
the formula for this would be

y = 2x + 3
the equation of a line in slope-intercept form is
y = mx + b ( m is the slope and b the y-intercept )
to calculate m use the gradient formula
m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )
with (x₁, y₁) = (- 2, - 1) and (x₂, y₂) = (2, 7)
m = =
= 2
y = 2x + b ← is the partial equation
to find b substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation
using (2, 7 ), then
7 = 4 + b ⇒ b = 7 - 4 = 3
y = 2x + 3 ← in slope-intercept form
