13/8 is already an improper fraction
Kate's model is correct because 10 times the value of 4 rods, 10(4(10)), is 400. Mel's model represents 4(1)=4, which is incorrect. Kate's model represents 4*100=400, which is correct.
Hope I answered your question!
Answer:
The slope is: m = -²/₅
The y-intercept is: b = -2
The equation of the line: y = -²/₅x - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope intercept form: y = mx + b
The slope: 
(-5, 0) ⇒ x₁ = -5, y₁ = 0
(0, -2) ⇒ x₂ = 0, y₂ = -2
So:

Is (A) because of u multiple all the triangle sides u will get 5 yd so (a) the answer
6=S
therefore, to find one you must divide both sides by 6
the answer should be = 1=S/6
