What is the equation of line l?

Answer 1

can you find the slope \(m\)?
and \(y\)-intercept?

Answer 2

the equation of a straight line is
\[y=mx+b\]

Answer 3

\(b\) is the \(y\)-intercept

Answer 4

okay, i got y=1/3x+1?

Answer 5

is that right?

Answer 6

@UnkleRhaukus

Answer 7

the closer to zero you get, the flatter the line

Answer 8

notice that the line intercepts (crosses) the y axis at a negative number; so the equation aint gonna end in a + anything

Answer 9

the slope is actually steeper that \(m=1\) in this case
an the \(y\)-intercept, \(b\) is where the line cuts the vertical \(y\)-axis, not the x axis
