What is the equation of a line that has a y-intercept of 4 and an x-intercept of -2?​

Answer:

y = 2x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Two points on this line are (-2, 0) and (0, 4).  Going from the first to the second, x increases by 2 (this is the 'run') and y increases by 4 ('rise').

Thus, the slope of this line is m = rise / run =  4/2 = 2

Using the slope-intercept formula, we get y = mx + b = 2x + b

Let x = -2 and y = 0 to find b:  0 = 2(-2) + b, so b = 4, and the desired equation is then:

y = 2x + 4

The graph shows how the length of a buildings shadow at a certain time of day is related to the height of the building.
Artyom0805 [142]
A. the graph represents a relation because it contains ordered pairs (x,y). It is also a function because there are no repeating x values.

B. (0,0) (8,6)
slope = (6 - 0 ) / (8 - 0) = 6/8 = 3/4
so ur equation is : y = 3/4x or f(x) = 3/4x <===

C. the variable x represents the height of the building and the variable y (or f(x)) represents the total length of the shadow
