We need to multiply the factors (x - 2) and (x^2 + 9x + 10) to see if the product is the original expression given.
(x - 2)(x^2 + 9x + 10)
x^3 + 9x^2 + 10x - 2x^2 - 18x - 20
x^3 + 7x^2 - 8x - 20.
Since the product just found is not the original expression given, Jimmy is wrong.
I will complete the work on paper by synthetic division and post my answer.
After using synthetic division, the correct quotient is x^2 + 9x + 20.
The linear equation is y = 4x - 4
And the graph of the linear equation can be seen in the image below.

How to graph the last line?</h3>
It seems that you already are good at graphing, so I will try to explain how to find the equation more in detail.
Remember that a general linear equation is written as:
y = a*x + b
Where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
In this case, we know that the y-intercept is -4, then b = -4, replacing that we get:
y = a*x - 4
Now we also can see that this line passes through the point (2, 4), this means that if we evaluate in x = 2, the outcome should be y = 4, replacing that we get:
4 = a*2 - 4
4 + 4 = a*2
8 = a*2
8/2 = a = 4
Then the slope is 4, and the linear equation is:
y = 4x - 4
The graph is below.

Answer:
a) x changes by 6.5 units
b) y changes by 13 units
Step-by-step explanation:
a. Over this interval, how much does x change by?
Initially, we have that x = 2.
In the end, we have that x = 8.5.
So x changes by 8.5-2 = 6.5 units
b. Over this interval, how much does y change by?
Initially, when x = 2, we have that y = 2x + 11 = 2*2 + 11 = 15
In the end, when x = 8.5, we have that y = 2*8.5 + 11 = 28
So y changes by 28 - 15 = 13 units
