Question

What are the slope and the y intercept of the graph of the liner function shown on the grid

Answer 1

To find the slope use the Rise over Run rule
It rises 2 units and runs 1 unit, so your slope is
2 or 2/1

To find the y-intercept just find where the line crosses the y-axis
it crosses at the -4 mark

Your slope is 2 and y-intercept is -4

Answer 2

Okay. Slope is rise/run and the formula for it is y2 -y1/x2 -x1. we have the points graphed and we will use (2, 0) and (4, 4). Here are what the numbers will represent.

y2 = 4
y1 = 0
x2 = 4
x1 = 2

Now we will subtract. 4 - 0 is 4/ 4 - 2 is 0. 4/2 is 2. The slope is 2. Now, we find the y-intercept, where the line crosses when x = 0. Just by looking at the graph, we can see that -4 is the y-intercept. There. The slope is 2 and the y-intercept is -4. The answer is F.
