Choose the equation that represents the graph below: Graph of a line passing through points 0 comma 6 and 9 comma 0 y = −2x − 6 y = two thirdsx + 6 y = −two thirdsx + 6 y = 2x + 6

satellite73 (satellite73):

do you see where it crosses the y axis?

OpenStudy (camthemathhunter):

yes 0,6

satellite73 (satellite73):

yes, that means it has to look like \(y=mx+6\) now all you need is the slope \(m\)

satellite73 (satellite73):

is the slope positive or negative?

OpenStudy (camthemathhunter):

negetive

satellite73 (satellite73):

right now you don't even have to compute the slope,there is only once choice with the slope is negative and ending in \(+6\)

OpenStudy (camthemathhunter):

A

OpenStudy (camthemathhunter):

for future reference how would you find M

satellite73 (satellite73):

no A for sure

satellite73 (satellite73):

the number out at the end in A is \(-6\) not \(+6\)

OpenStudy (camthemathhunter):

oh didn't see that

OpenStudy (camthemathhunter):

its C

satellite73 (satellite73):

yes it is always C

satellite73 (satellite73):

fyi slope is \(-\frac{2}{3}\) because the line decreases by 2 units in the y direction for every increase of 3 in the x direction
