Question

Find the equation of each line in slope intercept form: With x-intercept =-3 and Y intercept =4

Answer 1

@juanjohnguy do u know this one

Answer 2

Let me quickly look up the slope intercept form since the equation ecsapes me

Answer 3

Well there are multiple ways to do this....you could graph the two points that they give you or you can get the formula by looking at what they give you

Answer 4

ok

Answer 5

x intercepts just means that when x is equal to zero then we get that value for y

Answer 6

y intercept just means the same but when y is equal to zero

Answer 7

What would probably be easiest to get the solution would be to make a graph and plot the pionts.....and you can find the slope that way

Answer 8

k

Answer 9

and to find the "b" in the y = mx+ b equation....you need to think about what value you can give for either y or x to make it so that y can equal a number

Answer 10

because rememeber that in the y = mx+b equation....the m and the b are numbers

Answer 11

oh k

Answer 12

so what did u get

Answer 13

Oh hold on let me do it quickly

Answer 14

Well tell me what you got?

Answer 15

i dont know but i did the other one so do u know it

Answer 16

Yeah I do but I'm not usually the type to give out answers lol

Answer 17

alright then

Answer 18

Thats why I said that tell me what you got and I will confirm if it is right or not

Answer 19

idk

Answer 20

Like I said you can find the slope for the equation by plotting the points and drawing a line and finding the slope of the line because we know that the slope is just the rise over the run

Answer 21

And the b value would just be the value when x is zero since if we plug zero in for x then y = b in the equaiton

Answer 22

so we can plug tht in right

Answer 23

For b yes

Answer 24

so b will be -3

Answer 25

yup

Answer 26

so any other steps

Answer 27

you need to find the slope
