@retirEEd because of the line i think its a negative slope and the y intercept is 6 that only leaves me with two options c and d

I got the image to open, thanks.

heart_offire · Answer

how am i supposed to figure out the rise over run if there's so many points

retireed · Answer

Just look at them as a collective "fat" line.

heart_offire · Answer

4/3

thanks @kittey

retireed · Answer

Wrong. Not D.

retireed · Answer

Your slope calculation of 4/3 is closer to 1 than it is 2.

you welcom

heart_offire · Answer

@retirEEd so 3/4
