Let's see what to do buddy....

_________________________________

1) Go...

We have the following equation for finding the slope of the line by using two points :


slope = m = (y(b) - y(a))/(x(b) - x(a)) \\

Where a and b are the points which the line through them.

We have points C and D here ,

So :


slope = m = (y(d) - y(c))/(x(d) - x(c)) \\

D = ( 7 , 12 ) and C = ( 0 , 0 )

Now just need to put the coordinates in the above equation :


slope = m = (12 - 0)/(7 - 0) = (12)/(7) \\

_________________________________

2) Go...

We have the following equation to find the point-slope form of the linear functions :


y - y(o) =(slope) * ( \: x - x(o) \: ) \\

Where o is one of the given points.

So we must choose one of the points ,

I choose : D = ( 7 , 12 )

Then we have :


y - 12 = (12)/(7)(x - 7) \\

It's point-slope form, so we need to simplifies it to find slope-intercept form.

Look:


y - 12 = (12)/(7)x - 12 \\

Both sides plus 12


y = (12)/(7)x \\

Now we have the slope-intercept form of the CD line.

3) Go...

Domain = [ 0 , 7 ]

Range = [ 0 , 12 ]

And we're done.

Thanks for watching buddy good luck.
