Answer:
(-2, 6.5)
Step-by-step explanation:
Wayne can follow the line from (-2, 0) up to where it crosses the graphed line. The crossing point is approximately halfway between 6 and 7 on the graph, so can be considered to be 6.5.
If we put x=-2 into the equation and evaluate, we get ...
... y = (-3/4)(-2) +5 = 6/4 +5 = (1 1/2) +5 = 6 1/2
Thus the solution is (-2, 6 1/2).
Answer:
1.
m=
b= 2
2.
m=
b= 1
3.
m= 3
b=4
Step-by-step explanation:
1. The line intersects the y-axis at the point (0,2) therefore its y-intercept is b=2.
The line rises up 1 unit on the y-axis for every 4 units on the x-axis therefore the line has a slope of m=1/4.
Considering the equation of a line (y=mx+b), we plug in the variables we have found into the formula to find that
2. The line intersects the y-axis at the point (0,1) therefore its y-intercept is b=1.
The line down up 1 unit on the y-axis for every 3 units on the x-axis therefore the line has a slope of m= -1/3.
Considering the equation of a line (y=mx+b), we plug in the variables we have found into the formula to find that
3. The line intersects the y-axis at the point (0,4) therefore its y-intercept is b=4.
