Answer:

The mistake they made was they switched the slope and y-intercept.

The correct answer is y=2x+7 because when we write an equation in slope intercept form (y=mx+b) you replace m with the slope and b with the y-intercept.

Answer:

The answers are as follows: 12 106 42

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: $18 - 4^2 + 5 \times 2$

Using BODMAS rule (Bracket, Of, Division, Multiplication, Addition and Subtraction) we would calculate $18 - 4^2$ separately and $5 \times 2$ separately and add them. So we have $18 - 16 + 10 = 2 + 10 =12$ .
