Question

What are the slope and the y-intercept of the linear function that is represented by the graph?

Answer 1

The slope is the change in y over the change in x.

The first number in the parentheses is the x value, the second number is the y value.

Slope = (0-3) / (4-0)

Slope = -3/4

The y intercept is the y value when x is 0.

The given point (0,3) has x as 0, so the y intercept would be 3

Answers: slope = -3/4, y intercept = 3
