Hello!

x - 2y = 14

You have to make this into slope intercept form

subtract x from both sides

-2y = -x + 14

divide both sides by -2

y = 1/2 x - 7

Since the slope is positive the line moves up from left to right

The x-intercept is also positive

The answers are C and D

Hope this helps!

Translated to slope-intercept form, this equation is y = x/2 - 7. 
The slope is 1/2.
The y-intercept is 7.
The line does move up from left to right, since the slope is positive.
The x-intercept is positive, since if you set y = 0, x would equal 14.
