When finding the x and y intercepts of a line that passes through the points (-5,-5), (3,-3), how do you set up the equation

this would be 35. 35 + 5 = 40. you take the known constant and subtract by the answer of the equation and you get y.

if i knew id you bro,, my bad

for every positive x value, the y value must be greater than 1.

for every negative x value, the y value must be less than 1.

in your options, you can check to see that one of these two criteria is met. if neither are met, then it is not on a slope with positive line.
