Question

8. Find the slope-intercept form for the equation of the

Answer 1

Answer:

$y=\frac{1}{9}x$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the lines passes trough the points (-9, -1) and (0,0).

(0,0) is the origin.

Slope is: $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$m=\frac{0-(-1)}{0-(-9)} =\boxed{\frac{1}{9}}$

The slope is one-ninth.

Since the lines passes at the origin, it's y-intercept is 'zero'. We do not write zeros in slope-intercept equations, to the equation of the line should be:

$y=\frac{1}{9}x$
