BTW, I really need help! This is for a really important benchmark, and it's a little overdue.
Answered by Ms. Sue
If it's that important, you'd better figure out how to do it yourself.

So you are going to make me even more late by not helping, what you are here for?
Answered by Ms. Sue
I do not know how to help you. A math tutor should be around in an hour or two.
Answered by BTS
Ms. Sue, in the future, please don't respond, especially telling me to do it on my own if you don't know. And I don't need a tutor. Especially this late. Thanks, tho.
Answered by Ms. Sue
If you don't need a tutor, why did you post on Jiskha?
Answered by BTSislife
Because not everyone on here is a tutor

Look, can someone just answer my question???
Answered by henry2,
Function Q:
(4, 0), m = 1/4.
Y = mx + b.
0 = (1/4)4 + b,
b = -1 = y-int.
Eq: Y = (1/4)x - 1.

Function R:
(x, y): (-4, 14), (3, 0), (5, -4).
m = (0-14)/(3-(-4)) = -14/7 = --2.
Y = mx + b,
14 = -2*(-4) + b.
b = 6 = y-int.
Eq: Y = -2x + 6.
