Slope = rise over run = the change in y over the change of x
if you want it to be exactly 2, then you have to make sure the equations are proportional.
-5 - y / 6-1
so you simplify it -5-y/ 5
the answer needs to be 2 times 5,
2 x 5 = 10, so you need to add 5 because that's what you subtract from it in the end.
y = 15
let x = the distance from Delany's house to the mall
so half the distance would be 1/2x
then it is 5 miles less than that so you would subtract 5 to give you 1/2x-5
and that is more than 6 miles so you get 1/2x-5>6
