What is the slope of the line:

y=3x+8

3

100

What is the slope between these points?

(7,-2) and (2,4)

m = -6/5

100

Solve the equation for x:

6 = frac{x}{3}

x = 18

100

True or False?

Is this the graph of y=3x+2?

True

100

This is the number of US States named after a US President

1 (Washington)

200

What is the slope of the line: 

y=-1/5x+9

-1/5

200

What is the equation of the line that contains these points?

(10, -1) and (22, 17) 

m = \frac{17-(-1)}{22-10}= = \frac{18}{12} = \frac{3}{2}

y = mx + b

y =  \frac{3}{2}x + b

-1 = \frac{3}{2} * 10 + b

b = -16

y = \frac{3}{2}x - 16

200

Solve the equation for y:

12 - 4y=24

y = -3

200

True or False

Is this the graph of 

y=-1/2x-4

False

What is the equation of the line that contains these points?

(-4, -6) and (11, -21)

m = -1

b = -10

y = -x - 10
