Question

Please explain how you would graph this line using the slope-intercept method. y = -3/2x + 175

Answer 1

Slope intercept form is y = mx + b

m represents the slope and b represents the y intercept

Your line would start on 175 on the y axis and have a rise of -3 and a run of 2 (it has a negative slope, so the line will slope towards the right)

This means that the first point would be (0, 175) and the second would be (2, 172)
