Question

Describe how you would graph this line using the slope-intercept method. Be sure to write in complete sentences.
y = 1/3x + 3
–x + 3y = 9

Answer 1

Do you know how to graph a line?

Answer 2

no!

Answer 3

Oh. Um.. Okay. The y- intercept is where the line hits the y axis

Answer 4

ok

Answer 5

The slope is the angle the line goes at. Or, Rise/Run which is the number of squares counting up over the number of squares across.

Answer 6

Up 3, over one. Which is 3/1= 3

Answer 7

ok

Answer 8

So to graph y= 1/3x + 3,
1/3 is the slope. So, 1 up, 3 across.
3 is the y intercept, so the line is starts on that point.
Do you get it?

Answer 9

ok noow i get it!

Answer 10

Haha okay good :) Now you have to describe that in complete sentences.
