D. (11,13) (8,18)

B. -2

D. Undefined

D. 55/1

Explanation:

Answer 2

The points of the line that has a slope of -5 over 3 is (11,13) (8, 18). This can be computed using the formula of finding the slope of a line which m = y2-y2 over x2-x1. This is computed as follows:

m = 18-13 over 8 - 11
m= 5 over -3 or simplified to m= -5 over 3
