Question

help

Answer 1

okay y=1/2x+2...

Answer 2

first point: the y intercept

Answer 3

then after you put the y intercept, use the slope to move up the graph

Answer 4

Shastri007, do you want to keep helping?

Answer 5

Hi,
So we have the equation y = 1/2 (x) + 2 --- THIS IS EQUATION OF A STRAIGHT LINE
Remember the Y-intercept occurs when the x = 0
Therefore the coordinate for the y-intercept is (0 , 2)

In order to plot a graph we need to make a little table to substitue some values.
So the first is:

Answer 6

Another key to remember that gradient is the change in y over the change in x.
So in this question the gradient was 1/2
This meant that as you increase 1 unit on the x-axis, the y value increases by 1/2.

Answer 7

so i would graph (0,2) first and then (1,2)?

Answer 8

@Shastri007

Answer 9

Yes you would graph each coordinate as shown in the table, for instance
The first one I would graph is the coordinate (-2, 1) , then (-1, 3/2), then (0,2)
Order doesn't matter in plotting the coordinates, just ensure u plot them correctly.
Btw, you mentioned (1,2) this is wrong, it supposed to be (1, 5/2)

Answer 10

i still dont understand ur graph @Shastri007

Answer 11

What you don't understand about it?
How i plot the coordinates?
How i drew the best -fit line?
