The table of values below contains some values of a linear equation. What is the slope of the line?

Find the equation of the line that goes through the points (4, –1) and (2, –5). use slope formula, equation, to find the slope of a line that passes through the points. m = use slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, to find the y-intercept (b) of the line. b = write the equation in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b.

Each month, a shopkeeper spends 5x + 14 dollars on rent and electricity. if he spends 3x−5 dollars on rent, how much does he spend on electricity? for which value(s) of x is the amount the shopkeeper spends on electricity less than $100? explain how you found the value(s).
