i got d

Answer 8

y=5/2x

Answer 9

that's right, do you know why?

Answer 10

no

Answer 11

you can start the count at your origin (0,0) since the line passes perfectly through that intersection

can you spot another coordinate where the line passes perfectly through?

Answer 12

i am not sure but i get what u r saying. can u help me with one more? Please

Answer 13

and by perfectly through, I mean at what coordinate does the line pass through a whole # for x-coordinate and a whole # for the y-coordinate?

Answer 14

I can help you with another problem, but it might be better to understand how you got that answer before moving on
