The y intercept is anywhere the line crosses the y-axis. For example on the first graph it hits 1 on the y-axis. To find the slope you use rise/run (what I call it) so find two points and find the distance in between. For the bottom left graph you'd use the point (-1,0) and (0,2). Go to the up two from (-1,0) and to the right one to (0,2) which is 2/1. So your slope is 2 (aka b). I hope that helped!

The y-intercept is where on the graph the line is intersecting the y=axis. Slope is in the form y=mx+b (b=y-intercept, mx=how far up and over.)

Select the graph of the solution set that would represent the following expression. | x | > 5

Answer:

It would be the first graph because |x| >5 is solved in two cases

The first case you keep everything the same, just get rid of the absolute value bars

x>5

The second case, you need to switch the sign and make the 5 negative

x<-5

When graphing you want to put an open circle on -5, and 5 because when it is < or > you have an open circle,

You then point the arrows going which ever way your sign is going, this is why the -5 is going to the left because the < sign is pointing left, and same with the 5, the arrow is going right because the > sign is pointing right

Hope this helps ;)
