<h2>1/4 or 0.25</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

2 \frac{1}{2} y =  \frac{5}{8}

Convert Mixed number to improper fraction.

2 \frac{1}{2}  =  \frac{5}{2}

Equate

\frac{5}{2} y =  \frac{5}{8}

Cross Multiply

5y \times 8 = 2 \times 5 \\ 40y = 10

Divide both sides of the equation by 40

\frac{40y}{40}  =  \frac{10}{40}

Simplify

y =  \frac{1}{4}

What is the equation of the line connecting (1,5) and (4,14)?
german
To find the slope of the line:
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
(14-5)/(4-1)=(9)/(3)=3

Only one of your 4 possible answers has 3 as a slope. However, plugging in each point into the y=mx+b equation, the y-intercept consistently comes out as 2..
y=mx+b
14=3(4)+b  b=2
5=3(1)+b    b=2
y=3x+2
If there is a consistent, positive slope (from your question, this does not seem to have a quadratic as an option), 3x+5 is not even a viable solution because x=1 when the y-value is 5 (and thus no other x value {0} could have a y-value of 5). It seems as though you have a typo on your hands. Hopefully this helps?
