The first thing you always do with equations like these is get the y alone by moving everything to the other side. Once this is done, you take the opposite reciprocal of the slope. For example, number a, when you have y alone, is y=-1x+2. So the opposite reciprocal of the slope would be just 1, so the resulting equations would be y=1x+2.
