Answer: Locate the ordered pair (0, -6). From that point on the graph, move up 2, right 1 to locate the next ordered pair on the line.
Step 1: Determine the ordered pair
To start off, let’s find the ordered pair. This will eliminate two of the options; two of the potential answers state that the ordered pair is (0,-6), while the other two say that it is (-6,0).
To find the ordered pair, let’s look at the y-intercept. We are told that it is -6. This means that the point on the y-axis is -6, while the x-axis will remain at 0. Let’s put this information into a point, with 0 as x and -6 as y. This will be (0, -6).
Now that we know that (0, -6) is the ordered pair, we know to eliminate options 3 and 4. This leaves us with only options 1 and 2 as potential answers.
Step 2: Determine how to find slope
The final thing we need to do is determine how to find the slope. We are told that the slope is 2, but the two answers we have left ask us to explain how to proceed. We could either move up 2 and over 1 on the right, or move up 2 and over 1 on the left.
To find this, let’s examine the slope. As you may know, points on the graph go left if the slope is negative, and points on the graph to right is the slope is positive.
Since our slope is positive. We will go up 2 and over 1. This will bring us our final answer by eliminating option 2. Option 1 is our answer!!
Step 3: Write out final answer
Now that we eliminated all the invalid options, let’s write out our final option as our answer.
Locate the ordered pair (0, -6). From that point on the graph, move up 2, right 1 to locate the next ordered pair on the line.
Hope this helps! Comment below for more questions.
the simple fact that 94 is 49 backwards means nothing, anymore than say 001 and 100 are equal quantities or related other than in the digits.
so, 0.49 or 49/100 and 0.94 or 94/100, are two values, both are at the one hundredth level, so to see who is larger, we can nevermind the 100 and look at the numerator, 94 is clearly much larger than 49.
