Question

FOR A MEDAL Identify the slope and the Y intercept of y = -1/3x + 3 FOR A MEDAL

Answer 1

y = mx + b
y = -1/3x + 3
slope = m
y - intercept = 3

Answer 2

slope: \[-\frac{ 1 }{ 3 }\]
y - intercept:

Answer 3

y intercept: \[3\]

Answer 4

thanks homie!

Answer 5

no problem :)

Answer 6

any more?

Answer 7

yeah

Answer 8

Describe how you would graph this line using the slope-intercept method. Be sure to write in complete sentences.

Answer 9

okaii, so since the slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, we can use this a=to graph the line. First we plot the y-intercept; which in this case is positive 3. Then we use the slope -1/3 and use rise over run. We use the rise over run from the y-intercept, count up or down for the rise, over right or left for the run, and put the next point. So, it would be up or down -1 on the y-axis and run 3 to the right or left. Then connect the two points and this is your line.
