Answer 1

So, what did you try or what part did you have trouble with?

Answer 2

i just dont get it

Answer 3

OK. Well, the formulas they give as answers are all in the form of:
y=mx+b

You know what m is. They give it to you. They also give an (x, y) point. But you need to find b. Then you can put the m and b in and have an answer.

Answer 4

ok i think i get it. is it A?

Answer 5

Yah, looks like that is what b would solve for.

Answer 6

Ok thank you

Answer 7

Welcome!
