Answers:

  1. b
  2. c
  3. d
  4. a
  5. e

============================================

Step-by-step explanation:

The general form of a slope intercept equation is y = mx+b

m = slope

b = y intercept

Something like y = (-7/6)x + 1 matches with y = mx+b such that m = -7/6 is the slope and b = 1 is the y intercept. So that's why problem 1 matches with choice b (in column B).

Similar situations apply for problems 2 and 3

-----------

For problem 4, we can see the slope is m = -1, but unfortunately m = -1 isn't listed in column B. However, m = -7/7 is listed. So this is why problem 4 matches with choice a. This leaves problem 5 to match with choice e.

note: 6/7 = 12/14 after multiplying top and bottom by 2.
