Step-by-step explanation:
5. Let the equation of the line be y = mx + c
m = (6-15)/(2-(-1)) = -3
sub (2, 6) and m = -3:
6 = -3(2) + c
c = 12
Equation of the line: y = -3x + 12
6. Let the equation of the line be y = mx + c
y-intercept of 7 means c = 7
y = mx + 7
x-intercept: value of x when y = 0
therefore, sub (4, 0):
0 = m(4) + 7
m = -7/4
Equation of the line: y = -7/4x + 7
