Question

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

Answer 1

Answer:

slope is -2 and the y-intercept is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

a key thing to remember: x is always equal to 0 when finding the y-intercept.

so if you look at the table for where 0 is, you get the point (0,12) meaning the y-intercept is 12.

to find the slope use the equation: slope= change in y/change in x

you can use any two points to find this.

lets take the points of the x-intercept (6,0) and the y-intercept (0,12)

12-0/0-6

12/-6

-2 = slope
