Question

Use the graph to the right to write an equation of the line. What is the equation?​

Answer 1

Answer:

y = 1/4 x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the equation of a line, find from the line the slope and y-intercept. The y-intercept is where the line crosses the y-axis which here is at point (0,-2).

The slope of the line is found by writing a ratio between the vertical distance and the horizontal distance between points.

Slope is 1/4.

Substitute m = 1/4 and b = -2 into the slope intercept form y = mx + b.

y = 1/4 x - 2
