Answer 2

wouldnt my answer be C?

Answer 3

remember that in equations of a line like
y = mx + b
b is where the line hits the y axis. C is not correct...

Answer 4

and lines pointing from the bottom left to the top right have a positive slope

Answer 5

oh so it would be B then huh?

Answer 6

B has a negative slope, -2/3 That line would start at the upper left , in quadrant 2. Try one more time ^_^

Answer 7

D! lol

Answer 8

most definitely! ^^
