What is the linear function equation represented by the graph?

Two points on this line are (0,-4) and (3,-3)
The slope is 1/3 since we go up 1 and over to the right 3 units (when we go from (0,-4) to (3,-3))

We can see this using the slope formula
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (-3 - (-4))/(3 - 0)
m = (-3 + 4)/(3 - 0)
m = 1/3

The y intercept is -4 as this is the location where the graph crosses the y axis.
So b = -4

Plug m = 1/3 and b = -4 into the equation y = mx+b

Doing so leads to the answer of y = (1/3)x - 4
Which is the same as f(x) = (1/3)x - 4

The linear function equation is \boxed{y = \frac{1}{3}x - 4}.

Further explanation:

The formula for slope of line can be expressed as,

\boxed{m = \frac{{{y_2} - {y_1}}}{{{x_2} - {x_1}}}}

Explanation:

The line intersect \text{y}-axis at \left( {0,- 4} \right).

Therefore, the \text{y}-intercept is -4.

The line passes through the points \left( {0,- 4} \right) and \left( {3,- 3} \right).

The slope can be obtained as follows,

\begin{aligned}m &= \frac{{- 3 - \left( { - 4} \right)}}{{3 - 0}}\\&= \frac{{ - 3 + 4}}{3}\\&= \frac{1}{3}\\\end{aligned}

The slope of the line is \dfrac{1}{3}.

The slope intercept form of the linear equation is given as follows.

\boxed{y = mx + k}

Substitute \dfrac{1}{3} for m and -4 for k in equation y = mx + k.

y = \dfrac{1}{3}x - 4

The linear function equation is \boxed{y = \frac{1}{3}x - 4}.

Three of the choices are ways to express 0.50. Which is NOT?
Ganezh [65]

Option B

5 hundredths is not the way to express 0.50

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that Three of the choices are ways to express 0.50

To find: wrong option

Let us first write 0.50 in different ways

<h3><em><u>To convert a Decimal to a Fraction follow these steps: </u></em></h3>

Step 1: Write down the decimal divided by 1, like this: decimal 1.

Step 2: Multiply both top and bottom by 10 for every number after the decimal point. ...

Step 3: Simplify (or reduce) the fraction.

\rightarrow 0.50 = \frac{0.50 \times 100}{100} = \frac{50}{100}

\frac{50}{100} means 50 hundredths

<h3>Therefore option D is correct</h3>

On simplifying \frac{50}{100} we can write,

\rightarrow \frac{50}{100} = \frac{5}{10} = \frac{1}{2}

\frac{1}{2} means one half

<h3>Therefore option A (one half) is correct</h3>

Similarly, \frac{5}{10} means 5 tenths

<h3>Therefore Option C is also correct</h3>

Thus the wrong option is B

<em><u>Justification:</u></em>

5 hundredths can be written as:

\frac{5}{100} = 0.05

Therefore option B is wrong
