Slope-intercept equation from graph - Question
Answers
We are asked to complete the equation in slope-intercept form: . In this form, gives us the slope of the line and gives us its -intercept.
By looking at the graph, we can see that the -intercept is .
In order to find the slope, we need another point on the line whose coordinates are clearly visible. Such a point is .
Now, to find the slope, we need to take the ratio of the corresponding differences in the -values and the -values:
