Question

Graph the equations below using slope-intercept form

Answer 1

Look at the picture.

The slope-intercept form: y = mx + b

m - slope

b - y-intercept

$m=\dfrac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}$

We have $y=\dfrac{4}{5}x-1$

$b=-1\to(0,\ -1)$

$m=\dfrac{4}{5}\to\dfrac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}=\dfrac{4}{5}$

4 units up and 5 units right
