-- Look at the places where the line crosses the 'x' axis and the 'y' axis.
Between those two points, it goes forward 2 units, but only rises 1 unit.
So the slope of the line is 1/2 .
-- Look again at the point where the line crosses the y-axis.
At that point, y=1 .
That's the "y-intercept".
Now you have the slope and y-intercept of the line.
The equation of ANY straight line is
y = (slope)x + (y-intercept) .
You know what they both are, so you can easily write
y = 1/2 x + 1 .
Is that one of the choices ?
Yes it is.
Good enough for me.
That must be the correct one.
With no "blah blah blah" required.
The slope would appear linear in the negative direction. It would have a rise of 3, and a run of 4. The picture is the function “y = -3/4x”
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:all of them can be divided by 2 and it is the smallest number.
your answer would be -2.57142857143
3x + 4y = 16 Write original equation
3x + 4y - 4y = -4y + 16 Subtract 4y from each side
3x = -4y +16 Simplify
3x/3 = -4y/3 + 16/3 Divide each side by three
x = -4y/3 +16/3 Simplify
I hope this helps!
