Explanation:

You want to calculate the slope of this function:

3.5-6/0-(-2)

-2.5/2

=-1.25

=-5/4

So now, you start plugging in the point slope stuff:

point-slope form of equation: y-y1 = m(x-x1)

For (-2, 6):

y-6 = -5/4(x+2)

For (0, 3.5)

y-3.5 = -1.25x

For (2,1)

y-1 = -5/4(x-2)

For (4,-1.5)

y+1.5 = -5/4(x-4)

So the answers are:

1, 4, 5

basically all you have to do is use one pair of x and y values (for example -2, 6) and put them into the equations provided. if the equation ends up having, for example, 2=2 or any same number of both sides, it represents the table
