Question

Which equation describes the function shown on the graph?



y = -3x + 4


y = 3x – 4


y = 1

3 x – 4

Answer 1

There is no graph.

Answer 2

can you tell me the value of your y intercept

Answer 3

ie can you tell me where your line crosses the y axis?

Answer 4

ok let me know when you would like my help

Answer 5

help?

Answer 6

still waiting for you to answer my question, this site is called openstudy not instant answers

Answer 7

srry was trying to figure out on own when you said that... 4

Answer 8

actually -4 not 4

Answer 9

yes it crosses at -4 this is called your y-intercept

y=mx+b

so far you know the solution is
y=mx-4 because your b value is -4 remember we call b your y intercept

Answer 10

so let's figure out the slope

Answer 11

that is your m value

Answer 12

your slope is either a positive slope, negative slope, zero slope or undefined slope
read you graph from left to right and tell me if it is going
up (positive slope)
down (negative slope)
horizontal (0 slope)
vertical (undefined slope)

Answer 13

ok so is the line going up or down?

Answer 14

up

Answer 15

ok that means your number in front of x is positive

Answer 16

do you know how to calculate the slope using rise over run?

Answer 17

ya... learned that in 5th grade

Answer 18

ok pick 2 points and tell me what your slope is

Answer 19

run: 3
rise:1
(-6,-6) to (0,-4)
its 1/3=.66 repeting

Answer 20

you got it
y=(1/3)x-4
