Fans & Medals!! What is the equation of the graphed line? Hint: Determine the slope of the line. http://static.k12.com/calms_media/media/1503000_1503500/1503206/2/537531cd53990c49c34dd60adddf77266ee9150d/MS_IMC-140516-1000016.jpg

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

the points (0,0) and (5,6) are on this line

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so what is the slope through these points?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i would use the formula y2-y1/x2-x1

@jim_thompson5910

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yes you would

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok i got 6/5 is that right @jim_thompson5910

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

6/5 is the correct slope

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

use that, along with the y-intercept, to get the equation of the line

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks
