Answer:

See explanation below for all parts

Explanation:

Your current slope (m) is -1/2 (the orange colored slope) so the "opposite" slope would be 2/1 or 2(the blue colored slope)

The answer for number 3 is y=2x+b.

For number 4, plug in the point values for x and y and solve for b. The point given is (-4,-5).

-5=2(-4)+b Now simplify

-5=-8+b then add 8 to both sides to isolate b

3=b or b=3

For number 9, you now know that m is 2 and b is 3

y=2x+3
