-1.4 is less than -1/2 because -1/2 is -.5 as a decimal
assuming the scale is by 1,
a) the slope is rise/run so it rises 3 units and moves 4 units right therefore the slope is 3/4
b) the y intercept is where the line crosses the y axis so by looking at the graph you can tell that the y int is 1
c) and the equation is made up of the slope and the y intercept: y= 3/4x + 1
Y= x + 3
1. Find the gradient(slope)
1 - 7 / - 2 - 4
=1
2. Find the y. Intercept ( c )
Y = x + c
Replace by any of the two coordinates given (4 , 7 )
7 = 4 + c
C= 3
Equation => Y = x + 3
