Select the equation that corresponds with the given graph

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

y = -5x + 5 y equals negative 1 over 5 times x + 5 y equals 1 over 5 times x + 5 y = 5x + 5

OpenStudy (ryan123345):

look at choice 1 first,

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

I am staring at it sir

OpenStudy (ryan123345):

if you were to start on the y-intercept which would be 5 you would put a dot on 5 on the vertical line |

OpenStudy (ryan123345):

in the graph does the line go over 5?

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

Yes^

OpenStudy (ryan123345):

good

OpenStudy (ryan123345):

now you look at the slope which is -5. Put a one under it so it could be easier to understand -5/1 now from the point 5 go down 5 and to the right one. because remember down is negative and u got a -5

OpenStudy (ryan123345):

does the line go over that point too?

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

Yes^

OpenStudy (ryan123345):

there ya go :)

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

So then

OpenStudy (ryan123345):

thats your answer.

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

wut is

OpenStudy (ryan123345):

y = -5x + 5

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

tyvm

OpenStudy (ryan123345):

no problem :)
