help

OpenStudy (nuccioreggie):

Look at the graph shown: A coordinate plane is shown. A line passes through the y-axis at -1 and through the point 1 comma 2. Which equation best represents the line? y = 1 over 3. x − 1 y = 3x − 1 y = −x + 1 over 3. y = 3x + 1

https://www.mathsisfun.com/algebra/line-equation-2points.html here's an awesome tutorial... id guess maybe no one else is helping you because you're looking for just answers rather than how to solve things, so will help you, but won't do it for you, deal?

OpenStudy (nuccioreggie):

no you dont know me to say im just looking for answers im looking for the explanation of the answer

OpenStudy (jack1):

cools, so do you know how to get the 2 points from a straight line? if so, list the points below and we'll solve together, yeah?

OpenStudy (nuccioreggie):

no thats why i need help openstudy is all about help

OpenStudy (jack1):

ok, well can you read the graph and solve the below? on the graph you sent through, when y = 2, x = ?? and when y = -1 , x = ?

OpenStudy (nuccioreggie):

-1

OpenStudy (jack1):

for which? y = 2 or for y = -1

OpenStudy (nuccioreggie):

y=-1

OpenStudy (jack1):

yep, perfect

OpenStudy (jack1):

so one point on ur line is (-1, -1) now the other point: when y = 2, x =?

OpenStudy (nuccioreggie):

-2

OpenStudy (jack1):

no have another look at the purple line on ur graph

OpenStudy (nuccioreggie):

2

OpenStudy (jack1):

heres the point were after, what r its coordinates?

OpenStudy (nuccioreggie):

2

OpenStudy (jack1):

no. y = 2 x =???

OpenStudy (nuccioreggie):

-1

OpenStudy (jack1):

no please go to the link i sent you earlier and study it for 15mins, you need to understand how to read graphs before you can solve these type of questions.
