Try simplifying the answers into y=mx+b form. Then you can see the x-intercepts for each and see if they match. Another way to check is to calculate the slope between two points on the graph, and see which equation it matches. If you need help with either of these strategies I can help!

pick out two points on the graph first. then i'll tell you how to check the slope.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
(4,-2) (-2,2)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
To calculate the slope, do (y2-y1)/(x2-x1). So, (2-[-2])/(-2-4). What do you get?

Actually, you should get 4/-6, which simplifies to -2/3. which answers can you eliminate now?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
b and c
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so what tells me whether a or b is correct? @sophflake

take one of the points you found and plug the x into the equation. if you end up with the correct y value, it's the right equation.

can u walk me thru the substitution?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@SolomonZelman can u help me with the rest of this problem

What's ur question? :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i have to take one of the points found and plug the x into the equation.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
but i need help with it
OpenStudy (godlovesme):
So u have slope and points u just need to pick which eqn is?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes

ooh, lol when?
OpenStudy (godlovesme):
hang on
OpenStudy (godlovesme):
k first i dont think the slope is correct ...
\[y2-y1 / x2-x1\]
piclk any points and try to calculate slope
