Answer:
Y=x+8
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the gradient of the line u have to subtract the y intercepts and the x intercepts
10-7/2--1=3/3=1
Y-7/x--1=1
Y-7=x+1
Y=x+1+7
Y=x+8
If

is the length and

the width, then

.
Since the area of the rectangle is

you have

Factoring the left hand side gives

Obviously the width can't be negative, so

. This means D is the answer, since it's the only option with this measure.
Rise: 7, Run: 0
Rise (on the y-axis); from -2 to 5
Run (x-axis): 0
