Answer 2

Find the slope and y-intercept

y-intercept is where the line crosses on the y-axis..where is that?

Answer 3

no 1

Answer 4

Correct.

y = mx + b

Where 'b' is the y-intercept.

So far we have:

y = ?? x + 1

Answer 5

For the slope take any two points on the line and plug them into the slope formula.

Let's take (-1, 3) and (1, -1).

\(m = \dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\)

\(m = \dfrac{-1-3}{1+1}\)

Simplify, tell me what you get.

Answer 6

-4/2

Answer 7

Yes, now divide that

Answer 8

-2

Answer 9

Correct, so the slope is -2.

SO we have:

y = -2x + 1
