Question

10 points!!! What is the slope, y intercept, and equation from this table.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, we need to use the formula m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1).

Now we plug in 2 numbers from your table:

(85-61)/(6-3)

24/3

8

m=8

Now let's use point-slope formula to find our equation. A point on the line is (3,61) so we can use that. When we plug it in it looks like this:

y-61=8(x-3)

Distribute the 8:

y-61=8x-24

Add 24 to both sides:

y-37=8x

Add 37 to both sides:

y=8x+37

Now our equation is in slope-intercept form. Therefore, the y intercept is 37.

HTH :)
