HELP!!!
Graph y= -1/6 x-6

Answer 1

Is the equation \[y = -x/6-6\] ?

Answer 2

its y = -1/6 x - 6

Answer 3

I get a straight line when I try but that isnt one of my choices

Answer 4

Could it be this? http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=y+%3D+-1%2F%286+x+-+6%29

Answer 5

My choices

Answer 6

To graph a line, you just need 2 points, pick any 2 values for x and solve y

Answer 7

(x , y) and (x1,y1)

Answer 8

The last picture is the answer, pretty sure.

Answer 9

Oh, they gave you choices...

y = m*x+b

b - is where it crosses the y axis
m - the slope of the line

Answer 10

Let me see if I get the same thing

Answer 11

yep, the line crosses y axis at -6,
and
for each change in -1 unit in the y, you get 6 units in the left, for slope -1/6

Answer 12

I also get D!! thanks guys!!

Answer 13

For practice if needed, try and write the equations for the other 3 graphs

Answer 14
