Question

Find the Gradient and y-intercept of this line below and write the equation of the line.

Answer 1

tricky because of the different scale on the axes

Answer 2

looks like the line goes to the right 1, down 8, making the gradient \(-8\)

Answer 3

oh i never noticed that.

Answer 4

gotta look closely at the numbering on the hash marks
on the y axis it cuts at \(8\) and on the x axis at 1, half way to 2

Answer 5

yeah does that affect the gradient though ? Cause I thought it was 8 until I realized the line was sloping down.

Answer 6

it is going down so \(-8\) not \(8\)

Answer 7

okay what about the y intercept ? and i don't understand where the triangle is meant to go :/ Im really confused by all this :/
