Use the slope and y-intercept, if possible, to graph the line whose equation is given. Y= 4x + 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the slope of the equation is 4/1 and the y-intercept is 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Slope-intercept form = y=mx+b m=slope, b=y intercept :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

alright

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So to solve for y, make x zero, and vice versa for x.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Then you can graph the equation :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Does that make sense?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

somewhat

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do u need a graph?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok, let me know what you get when you make x zero :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No I have a graph cchhet1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You would have y=1 :) Now plug in zero for y.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4/1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x =4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is this right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Or will it be -1/4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It owuld be -1 over 4 :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sorry, meant would.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y= -1/4x + 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah, that would be the right equation to graph, I think. :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks for your help today

OpenStudy (anonymous):

My pleasure! :)
