To graph the equation y=1/2x-3 using the slope and y-intercept, you would have to do which of the following? A. Graph the y-intercept, 3. From that point, move down 1 and to the right 2 to plot another point. Then draw a line that passes through both points. B. Graph the y-intercept, -3. From that point, move up 1 and to the right 2 to plot another point. Then draw a line that passes through both points. C. Graph the y-intercept, -3. From that point, move down 1 and to the right 2 to plot another point. Then draw a line that passes through both points.
D. Graph the y-intercept, 3. From that point, move up 1 and to the right 2 to plot another point. Then draw a line that passes through both points.
Which one do you think it is?
i personally think its between A and D but i am not so sure.
It's neither
The y-intercept is negative, not positive
* sad face!!* i am not so good at this,teacher taught this to me today.so i am kind of confused.
Notice how we have y = 1/2x - 3
The -3 is the y-intercept
ok i see that :)
the slope is 1/2
this tells you to go up one and to the right two
to jump from point to point, this helps you find another point given one point
so its B? :D
you nailed it
yay!!! thank you!
you're welcome, glad to be of help
