Hello does anyone know the easiest way to identify if an equation matches a graph? Without having to draw the graph and graph the line.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Matches a graph without drawing the graph?

OpenStudy (exoticinspirit):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is there even a graph then? I dont understand lol

OpenStudy (exoticinspirit):

no just for any math question in general

OpenStudy (exoticinspirit):

like if i have the equation y=-2x+1 and 4 graphs and i have to find the right graph that matches

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Depends what the Delta Y Delta X is Aka Rise over run

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That equation is -2 over 1 So it would go down 2 over 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And the "+1"is the Y intercept

OpenStudy (exoticinspirit):

0ohhh thanks because y=mx+b right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yess

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Mx is the Delta Y over Delta X and b is the Y intercept

OpenStudy (anonymous):
