1. **Write a rule for the line that contains the points (0, \frac{3}{4}) and (2 \frac{1}{2}, 3 \frac{1}{4})**.
Step 1: State the problem.
Find the equation of the line passing through points $A(0, \frac{3}{4})$ and $B(2\frac{1}{2}, 3\frac{1}{4})$.
Step 2: Convert mixed numbers to improper fractions.
$2\frac{1}{2} = \frac{5}{2}$ and $3\frac{1}{4} = \frac{13}{4}$.
Step 3: Calculate the slope $m$ using the formula:
$$m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{\frac{13}{4} - \frac{3}{4}}{\frac{5}{2} - 0} = \frac{\frac{10}{4}}{\frac{5}{2}} = \frac{\frac{5}{2}}{\frac{5}{2}} = 1$$
Step 4: Use point-slope form $y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)$ with point $(0, \frac{3}{4})$:
$$y - \frac{3}{4} = 1(x - 0)$$
$$y = x + \frac{3}{4}$$
Step 5: Identify two more points on this line by choosing $x$ values:
- For $x=1$, $y=1 + \frac{3}{4} = \frac{7}{4}$
- For $x=3$, $y=3 + \frac{3}{4} = \frac{15}{4}$
Points: $C(1, \frac{7}{4})$, $D(3, \frac{15}{4})$.

2. **Write a rule for a line parallel to BC and goes through point (1, \frac{1}{4})**.
Step 1: Recall that parallel lines have the same slope.
Slope of BC is $1$.
Step 2: Use point-slope form with point $(1, \frac{1}{4})$:
$$y - \frac{1}{4} = 1(x - 1)$$
$$y = x - 1 + \frac{1}{4} = x - \frac{3}{4}$$

3. **Create a rule for the line that contains points (1, \frac{1}{4}) and (3, \frac{3}{4})**.
Step 1: Calculate slope:
$$m = \frac{\frac{3}{4} - \frac{1}{4}}{3 - 1} = \frac{\frac{2}{4}}{2} = \frac{\frac{1}{2}}{2} = \frac{1}{4}$$
Step 2: Use point-slope form with $(1, \frac{1}{4})$:
$$y - \frac{1}{4} = \frac{1}{4}(x - 1)$$
$$y = \frac{1}{4}x - \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{4} = \frac{1}{4}x$$
Step 3: Identify two more points:
- For $x=0$, $y=0$
- For $x=4$, $y=1$
Points: $G(0,0)$, $H(4,1)$.

4. **Write a rule for a line passing through the origin and lies between BC and GH**.
Step 1: BC has slope $1$, GH has slope $\frac{1}{4}$.
A line between them has slope $m$ such that $\frac{1}{4} < m < 1$.
Step 2: Choose $m=\frac{1}{2}$ for example.
Equation:
$$y = \frac{1}{2}x$$

5. **Rules and points for given lines:**
a. Addition: $x + 1 = y$
Points: $T(0,1)$, $U(1,2)$
b. Line parallel to x-axis: $y = 1 \frac{1}{4} = \frac{5}{4}$
Points: $G(1, \frac{5}{4})$, $H(2, \frac{5}{4})$
c. Multiplication: $5x = y$
Points: $A(1,5)$, $B(2,10)$
d. Line parallel to y-axis: $x = \frac{1}{4}$
Points: $V(\frac{1}{4},0)$, $W(\frac{1}{4},3)$
e. Multiplication with addition: $y = 2x + 1$
Points: $R(1,3)$, $S(2,5)$

6. **Mrs. Boyd's question about lines through (0.6, 1.8):**
- Avi's line: $y = 3x$ passes through $(0.6, 1.8)$ because $3 \times 0.6 = 1.8$.
- Ezra's line: $x = 0.6$ is vertical and passes through $(0.6, y)$ for any $y$, including $1.8$.
- Erik's line: $y = x + 1.2$ passes through $(0.6, 1.8)$ because $0.6 + 1.2 = 1.8$.
All these lines contain the point $(0.6, 1.8)$ but have different slopes or orientations.
---
**Final answers:**
1. $y = x + \frac{3}{4}$
2. $y = x - \frac{3}{4}$
3. $y = \frac{1}{4}x$
4. $y = \frac{1}{2}x$
5. See above for each line and points.
