How do you know if a equation is a proportion

Iam trying to solve a linear equation for the shoe size of someone 84" tall taking into consideration example 1 is 69" tall with a shoe size of 9 and example 2 is 72 inches tall with a shoe size of 11. i understand that the equation should be y=mx+b and that on the graph the answer is (3,2) but i just don't understand how to create the equation to solve for 84-inches and 60-inches tall questions. after two days, i need .

Which graph represents the parent function of y=(x+2)(x-2)

The graph shows the decibel measure for sounds depending on how many times as intense they are as the threshold of sound. noise in a quiet room is 500 times as intense as the threshold of sound. what is the decibel measurement for the quiet room? 20 decibels28 decibels200 decibels280 decibels
