Determine whether there exists a constant $c$ such that the line $x+c y=1:$ \begin{equation} \begin{array}{ll}{\text { (a) has slope 4. }} & {\text { (b) passes through }(3,1).} \\ {\text { (c) is horizontal. }} & {\text { (d) is vertical. }}\end{array} \end{equation}

Linear and Quadratic Functions
Find the slope of the line passing through each pair of points or state that the slope is undefined. Then indicate whether the line through the points rises, falls, is horizontal, or is vertical. (3, -4) and (3, 5)

Linear Functions and Slope
Determine whether there is a value for the constant $c$ making the function continuous everywhere. If so, find it. If not, explain why not. $$f(x, y)=\left\{\begin{array}{ll}c+y, & x \leq 3 \\ 5-x, & x>3\end{array}\right.$$
