Look carefully at the first pair: (−3, 9), (−3, −5) Note that x does not change, tho' y does. This is how we recognize a vertical line (whose slope is undefined). The equation of this vertical line is x = -3.
Looking at the second pair: from (3,4) to (5,6), x increases by 2 and y by 2; thus, the slope is m = rise/run = 2/2 = 1.
Third pair: as was the case with the first pair, x does not change here, and thus the equation of this (vertical) line is x=0 (which is the y-axis). The slope is undefined.

Answer:
x = 5/4
y = 7/4
Step-by-step explanation:
The smaller triangle and the larger one are similar, so the sides are proportional.
(x+5)/5 = 10/8
x/5 + 1 = 1/4 + 1 . . . . . divide it out
x/5 = 1/4 . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 1
x = 5/4 . . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 5
___
For y, you can do exactly the same computations, replacing every instance of 5 with a 7. Then you get ...
y = 7/4
