Question

Write the slope-intercept form of the equation for the line: (picture attached below)

A. y = -5/8x + 1/2
B. y = 8/5x - 1/2
C. y = 5/8x + 1/2
D. y = 8/5x + 1/2

Answer 1

here's the picture.

Answer 2

its easy to remember that slope is equal to rise/run. choose a point on the line and either go up or down (rise) then go left or right (run)

Answer 3

y = mx + b
m is the slope. rise/run
b is a point on the y-axis

Answer 4

so it is (3,4) and (-4,-2) isn't it?

Answer 5

yes but its (4,3) not (3,4). start at (-4,-2) and count up 5 then to the right 8 and you'll be at (3,4).

Answer 6

C.

Answer 7

thank you!
