Question

Explain how to graph:

Answer 1

\[y = \frac{ 1 }{ 3 }x + 4\] Using the slope-intercept method

Answer 2

the slope is
\[\frac{ 1 }{ 3 }\]
So, what's next?

Answer 3

What's the y-intercept?

Answer 4

4

Answer 5

Right. so plot the y-intercept, Then use the slope to find another point. Remember, to graph a line you only need 2 points.

The slope is "rise over run". So a slope of 1/3 means that for every "rise" of +1, you have a "run" of +3. Up 1, right 3. (Or, down 1, left 3, i you prefer :)

Answer 6

then from that point you 4

Answer 7

Start by plotting a point on the y-axis at y = 4 (the y-intercept)
Plot the point 1 point above (rise) and 3 points to the right (run) from the y-intercept.
Use a straightedge to connect the points and continue the line.

Answer 8

oh yes that s correct ^

Answer 9

so, my points are (0, 4) and (3, 5)?

Answer 10

well no it's (0,4)(1,3)

Answer 11

@AccidentalAiChan Those points are correct.
