Question

LIL HELP PLZZ MEDAL AND FAN

Answer 1

this is a simple y = mx+b equation. do you know what I am talking about?

Answer 2

find the slope things or this one is different than that?

Answer 3

yes, the slope is a part of this line.

Answer 4

okay

Answer 5

basically, this line follows the pattern y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept, meaning that m is the slope of the line, and b is the point where the line crosses the y axis. does this make sense so far?

Answer 6

yea

Answer 7

great. so the first part is to find the slope. we can do this with the slope formula.

Answer 8

its gonna take a long time i believe

Answer 9

the slope formula's first step is finding two points on the line. you know that one point on the line is (6,1) , so can you find one more?

Answer 10

the slope formula is actually pretty simple, and it won't take that long in the future.

Answer 11

ok

Answer 12

so can you find another point on the line?

Answer 13

(-6,-1)

Answer 14

m=1/6 ? is this the last answer?

Answer 15

the point I had in mind was (0,0) otherwise known as the origin of the graph, the point where the y and x axis intersect. While (-6,-1) would work too, let's keep it simple by using the origin.

Answer 16

yes, by using the slope formula of

Answer 17

ok i need a correct answer tho

Answer 18

let's use the slope formula to find the correct answer

Answer 19

your first point is (6,1) and the next one is (0,0)
the coordinates are in (x,y) format, so make 6 and 1 x1 and y1 and 0 0 x2 and y2

Answer 20

we are going to get the same answer tho i've finished

Answer 21

yup, but next time you might need to use the slope formula so I put it here anyway. the next step is to find where the line crosses the y axis. where is that

Answer 22

@Adam96
Care to share your working and answer so we can see how oyu did it?

Answer 23

or not
