Step-by-step explanation:

If you're graphing by hand, plot the point (2, -5), then draw a line through it with a slope of +1/2. Such a line will have a rise of 1 unit for each run of 2 units to the right. That is, (2, -5) +(1, 2) = (3, -4) will be another point on the line. You can draw the line through these two points.

When you are given a point and a slope, it is convenient to know the point-slope form of the equation of a line:

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

Here, the equation can be ...

  y -(-5) = (1/2)(x -2)

  y +5 = (1/2)(x -2)

A graphing calculator can draw the graph of this very nicely.

1/3

step-by-step explanation:

to find this, you can divide 12 by 4 which is 3 or you can multiply 4 until you reach 12 (4x3=12). both should give you 3, meaning theres three times less bananas than there are oranges.
