Question

What is the slope and y-intercept of the equation represented by the following graph?

Answer 1

A. slope = 2, y-intercept = -1/2

B. slope = -2, y-intercept = -1/2

C. slope = -1/2 , y-intercept = 2

D. slope = 1/2 , y-intercept = 2

E. slope = -1, y-intercept = 2

Answer 2

y intercept = where does the line cross the y axis? @AnonymousBella

Answer 3

y intercept = where does the diagonal line cross the y axis? @AnonymousBella ?

Answer 4

2

Answer 5

yep

Answer 6

slope = rise over run
so going from left to right, is the line "uphill" or "downhill" ?

Answer 7

downhill?

Answer 8

yep, so the slope will be a negative number, as it's "downhill"

Answer 9

so not A, (wrong y intercept)
not B, (wrong y intercept)
not D (wrong slope)

must be C or E

Answer 10

C?

Answer 11

slope = rise over run
=(y2 - y1)/(x2-x1)

Answer 12

can you solve from here? @AnonymousBella ?
using
\[\huge slope = \frac { y_2 - y_1}{ x_2 - x_1}\]
