What is the equation of the line? https://static.k12.com/calms_media/media/1503500_1504000/1503770/1/1bf0d5d19875f8ba5b37c787b050508150a1633f/MS_IMC-140523-131301.jpg A. y = -3/2x B. y = -2/3x C. y = 2/3x D. y = 3/2x
it is either a or d i m leaning to a though...
plz put proof with ur work thx
@Nnesha
Answer is c.
how i cant see that...
the x-axis is before the y-axis
A or D lets cancel out 2 options by just knowing this if the line is increasing then you will get positive slope if the line is decreasing then slope would be negative
hmmmm... one sec
oh so d? because the line is increasing
slope = rise over y-intercept is a point where line intersect y-axis so how many units it's going up from the y-intercept and then right ?
why is it D why not C ?
like i said line is increasing so A B can't be the answer
ok, let me try c
Take any 2 points that the line is passing through. I've taken (3,2) and (0,0). Then you use the standard line equation: (y-y1)={(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)}*(x-x1)
Here: y1=2, x1=3, y2=0, x2=0.
the line does not intercept with c
WAIT!!!!!
RISE TO RUN CORRECT???
\(\color{blue}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @Houdini_Dragon the line does not intercept with c \(\color{blue}{\text{End of Quote}}\) with x what do you mean ?
2 up and 3 across
i dunno why x is there that is just part of the answer choice
perhaps it is because of the x-axis
y=mx+B is a slope intercept where m is slope and b is y-intercept x is variable with slope that supposed to be there
u r right it is c, because the rise is 2, and the run is 3
ok
|dw:1444338219047:dw| so yes right
