C−3x y=16−3x y=16

d.−x y=12

First you need to find the slope of the line. So what you need to do is y^2-y^1 / x^2-x^1

(x^1, y^1) (x^2, y^2)
( -1, 7) ( 2, 10)

10-7/ 2- (-1)
3/3=1
slope is 1

I got 8 as the y intercept. Reason how is that I made a table. And what I did was go back instead of going forward.

x y
-1 7
0 8
1 9
2 10

The answer would be x= 1 y= x + 8 y=8 But the answer choice you listed for A. would not match up the 2 coordinate you gave. Make sure a. should be x= 1 y= x + 8 y=8, not -x y= 8-x y=8
