Question 4287: match the terms with the definition:
       the term.                                the definition

y-intercept = 4, contains (-6, -1)         A) y = (5/6)x + 4 
 contains (-1, -6) and slope = 0                B) y = (5/6)x 
 contains (-6, -8) and (-6, 0)                  C) y = (-1/4)x 
 contains (12, 10) and slope 5/6                D) y = -6x - 6 
 undefined slope and contains (-7, -8)          E) y = (-1/4)x - 1 
 contains (8, -2) and (-4, 1)                   F) y = -3x 
 slope -3 and passes through the origin         G) x = -7 
 contains (-1,0) and slope = -6                 H) y = -6 
 contains (4,-2) and m = -1/4                   I) x = -6 
 Passes through (-2,2) and (2, -10)             J) y = -3x -4

It is not hard to solve. Select one phrase on the left after another. For every phrase: Start with the slope. For a given slope, find the ones on the right with that slope being the coefficient before y.
Then, for every given point (x, y) plug in the value of x and compute y, into equations that match the slope.
As soon as you match a sentence on the left to the equation on the right, cross the equation out as you already indentified what it belongs to.
The "undefined slope" equations are of form x = number.
