    Answer d since g(-6)=-7(-6)+2=44

    Answer a because y=mx+c take the first co-ordinates -2=m(-4)x+c now the other co-ordinates

    -1=m(-1)x+C

    solve simultaneously to get m=1/3

    y=2x-10 and y=x-7 solving simultaneously we have x=3 and y=-4

    g(x) = -7x+2

    g(-6) = -7(-6) +2

    =42+2

    =44 (D)

    (-4,-2)(-1,-1)

    -1-(-2) / -1-(-4)

    -1+2 / -1+4

    1/3 (A)

    y=2x-10

    x-y=7

    from second equation

    x=7+y

    sub into first equation

    y= 2(7+y) -10

    y= 14 + 2y - 10

    -y = 4

    y= - 4

    sub y = - 4 into second equation

    x = 7 + ( - 4 )

    x = 3

    (3, -4)
