Starting from what I know (the difference between ribbons), I decided to go from the bottom and work my way up. I then noticed a pattern (each sum was three more of the previous one), and decided to keep my pattern of the three numbers but not have to do any major mental work and instead add three to the previous sum until I got to 38.
5.5 is your answer your welcome
The slope is the factor in front of x, so slope is 9.
The y intercept is 7 (that's the point of cross the y axis, where x=0)
There are multiple definitions of "standard form" for lines, so here are the two i can think of:
9x - y = -7 (the implicit function form)
or
y-7 = 9*(x-0) (the point-slope form)
Lmk if you have questions.
Step-by-step explanation:
picture is not clear but I guess 2,-2
