Hi there!
First, let's find the slope of the two points using the slope formula (y2 - y1 / x2 - x1).
S = 4 - 2 / 3 - 5
S = 2 / -2
S = -1
Next, we'll plug in the slope and a point into point-slope form (y - y1 = s(x - x1)) in order to find an equation. I will show the work using both points, which will result in two different equations.
(2,5)
y - 5 = -1(x - 2)
y - 5 = -x + 2
y = -x + 7
(4,3)
y - 3 = -1(x - 4)
y - 3 = -x + 4
y = -x + 7
The two equations came out the same! Which is completely okay, and happens sometimes.
Hope this helps!! :)

Answer:
im not sure if this is correct but, i got C
Answer: -1/2 or -0.5.
Explanation: -2- -1, -6- -2= -0.5
Amount earned by Sharon per item sold = $25
Base salary of Sharon per week = $100
Amount that needs to be earned by Sharon per week = $700
Let us assume the number of items sold by Sharon per week = x
Then
100 + 25x = 700
25x = 700 - 100
25x = 600
x = 600/25
= 24
So Sharon needs to sell 24 items to earn a total of $700 per week. I hope you have understood the method of solving such problems.
