Answer:

see explaination

Explanation:

So, the number(s) next to the “x” are the slope. The numbers after that are the y intercept

So, for the first one you graph the y intercept, which would be (0,2). Then, from there, since 1/4x is NOT negative, you move in rise over run. So from (0,7) you RISE 1 (move up) and then RUN 4 (move right), giving you the point of (3,4). Continue this until you have a line.

Same w other equation, y intercept is (0,-7). Slope is -2, which can be seen as -2/1. Make sure your line is NEGATIVE. From (0,-7) you move down 2 points and left one. Continue this.
