==============================================
Explanations:
- This is discrete because we can't have half a basketball, or any non-whole decimal value to represent the number of basketballs. We can only consider positive whole numbers {1,2,3,4,...}. A discrete set like this has gaps between items. In other words, the midpoint of 2 and 3 (the value 2.5) isn't a valid number of basketballs.
- This is continuous because time values are continuous. We can take any two different markers in time, and find a midpoint between them. For example, the midpoint of 5 minutes and 17 minutes is 11 minutes since (5+17)/2 = 22/2 = 11. Continuous sets like this do not have any gaps between items. We can consider this to be densely packed.
- This is the same as problem 1, so we have another discrete function. You either score a bullseye or you don't. We can't score half a bullseye. The only possible values are {1,2,3,4,...}
- This is similar to problem 2. This function is continuous. Pick any two different positive real numbers to represent the amount of gallons of water. You will always be able to find a midpoint between those values (eg: we can have half a gallon) and such a measurement makes sense.
So in short, always try to ask the question: Can I pick two different values, compute the midpoint, and have that midpoint make sense? If so, then you're dealing with a continuous variable. Otherwise, the data is discrete.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the equation to this line, we need to note that we see two points on this graph. Using these two points, we can use them to find the slope of the graph and use one to find the y-intercept.
We know that the slope of a line is defined by 
(change in y / change in x). Therefore, we can use our two points that we know - (-5, 2) and (3, 4) to find the slope.
The change in y is 
, and the change in x is 
. Therefore, our slope is 
.
Now that we know our slope, our equation in slope-intercept form looks something like this.
However, we still have b to solve for. We can solve for this by substituting a point we already know into the equation. Let's substitute (3, 4) inside.
So now we know that the y-intercept is 
. Plugging that into our equation finishes it off, leaving our final equation to be 
.
Hope this helped!
