i think its b but im not sure

What is the equation of slope-intercept form?
Do you know?

anonymous · Answer

y=mx+b

rvc · Answer

yeah

anonymous · Answer

its b right

rvc · Answer

im bit confused 
the values of m and b can be negative also

anonymous · Answer

if you need the graph i posted a link

anonymous · Answer

i probably need to find the slope

anonymous · Answer

b is incorrect. since the line's slope is 1/1, it would be a positive increase, and you can assume that the slope is just "x" and pretend theres an invisible "1" in front of it.

anonymous · Answer

so it would be  c

anonymous · Answer

yes! :)
