How could you graph a line using y- intercept?

OpenStudy (beatboxingfetus):

y=2x+3 is the equation

OpenStudy (ashes.boom):

use the y intercept as your first point. the y intercept intersects the y axis so if the equation is y = 2x + 3 than 3 is your intercept. from there you can take the slope which is 2 and move two spaces up and one space to the right to make your second line. connect the two and you have your line.

Here you go dear Hope I helped. http://hotmath.com/hotmath_help/topics/parallel-lines-and-slopes.html

OpenStudy (beatboxingfetus):

@Ashes.boom Thank you !

OpenStudy (ashes.boom):

Your welcome :)

OpenStudy (beatboxingfetus):

@ajanijones it's not parallel stuff i'm graphing, but thank you !

OpenStudy (beatboxingfetus):

@Ashes.boom do you know what Function notation is

OpenStudy (ashes.boom):

um a little bit its like f(x) stuff what do you need maybe i can help

OpenStudy (beatboxingfetus):

heres the question: Write the equation in function notation. Explain what the graph of the function represents.

OpenStudy (ashes.boom):

whats the equation

OpenStudy (ashes.boom):

or the graph

OpenStudy (beatboxingfetus):

the y=2x+3

OpenStudy (ashes.boom):

oh okay so the equation in function notation would be f(x)=2x+3

OpenStudy (beatboxingfetus):

Ohhh, thank you ! c: (math is definitely not my strong point)

OpenStudy (ashes.boom):

f(x) is basically the y value of the equation because its the "input " value and x is the "output" value. does that make sense

OpenStudy (ashes.boom):

your welcome haha
