    For part (A), you just need to graph this line you can put in different x values and see what y values result. So after x = 1 hour, y will be y = 1000 - 65 (1) = 935, and so on for x = 2, x = 3, x = 4, x = 5, and finally x = 6. Part A asks you to find the value of y ... the distance remaining ... when x = 6 hours. But it sounds like you are supposed to graph it.

    For part (B), reorganize the equation into the normal "slope-intercept" form, like

    y = mx+b.

    y = 1000 - 65x

    y = - 65x + 1000

    y = mx + b

    Then remember that slope is m and y-intercept is b.
