The equation of a line is typically written as y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Find y:
8x-y=40
y = 8x - 40
slope = 8
Answer:
B
D
Step-by-step explanation:
The y-intercept is the y value when x = 0, or (0 , y)
Based on the graph, your y-intercept is at (0 , 2) or 2
The slope(m) can be found using the slope formula and plugging in 2 points:
But if you look at the answer choices, if the slope is positive, the line would be going up and to the right
If the slope is negative, the line would be going down and to the right
your answer is A
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
To graph this equation, start at the origin (0,0) since there is not y-intercept.
Because slope is characterized by rise/run ( i.e. how many units up or down depending on whether it is positive or negative and then however many units to the right.
Because the rise (up and down, numerator) is 1, we know that we will go up one unit.
The run (side to side, denominator) is 4, so we will go to the right 4 units.
This makes the first point (4, 1).
Continue doing this until you get an idea of the line and connect the points to get the graph
