Answer: y = 2/3x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We will write the equation in slope intercept form (y=mx+b).

In the formula y=mx + b, m is the slope and b is the y intercept. We need the slope and y intercept numbers to write the equation. Since we know the slope we will use the given point to find the y intercept by plotting in the x and y coordinates into the formula.

1 = 2/3(-3) + b Solve for b

1= -6/3 + b

1 = -2 + b

+2 +2

b = 3

The equation will be y = 2/3x + 3

What is the slope of the line shown below?

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

(1/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

From one point, if you go up one and over 2 you will get exactly one block up than from your initial point. And since the graph is pointing down on left side, that means it's positive.

Write a function for the line with a slope -1/4 that passes through the point (4,5)

Lilit [14]

Answer: The point slope solution is y+4 = -(1/2)(x-4) which is y + 4 = -(.5)x + 2 or y = -(.5)x -2.
