Slope = (-14-1)/(7-1) = -15/6
y = mx + c
y = -15/6 x + c
at (1,1)
1 =-15/6(1) + c
c = 1 + 15/6 = 21/6
y = -15/6 x + 21/6 or
6y = -15x + 21

I'am somewhat confident that some are right because iam not sure your suppose to round the nearst tenth
First, factor out 5:
5 (x² -x -20)
We need two numbers that add to -1 and multiply to -20. -5 and 4 satisfy this.
5(x-5)(x+4)
