Answer: y-intercept: (0, 12)

Step-by-step explanation:

a_n = 9 − 3 (n − 1)

Use the slope-intercept form to find the slope and y-intercept.

  The slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

     y = mx + b

  Find the values of m and b using the form y = mx + b.

     m = −3

     b = 12

  The slope of the line is the value of m, and the y-intercept is the value of b.

     Slope: −3

     intercept: (0, 12)

Any line can be graphed using two points. Select two x values, and plug them into the equation to find the corresponding y values.

  Find the x-intercept.

     To find the x-intercept(s), substitute in 0 for y and solve for x.

        0 = −3x + 12

      Solve the equation.

        Rewrite the equation as −3x + 12 = 0.

              −3x + 12 = 0

         Subtract 12 from both sides of the equation.

              −3x = −12

         Divide each term by −3 and simplify.

              x = 4

     x-intercept(s) in point form.

     x-intercept(s): (4, 0)

  Find the y-intercept.

     To find the y-intercept(s), substitute in 0 for x and solve for y.

        y = −3 ⋅ 0 + 12

   Solve the equation.

     Remove parentheses.

           y = −3 ⋅ 0 + 12

       Simplify −3 ⋅ 0 + 12.

           y = 12

     intercept(s) in point form.

     intercept(s): (0, 12)

  Create a table of the x and y values.

     <u> x | y </u>

     0 | 12

     4 | 0

Graph the line using the slope and the y-intercept, or the points.

Slope: −3

intercept: (0, 12)

What is the equation for the line? enter your answer in the box
Igoryamba
To get the equation of the line, you need two points that belong to this line.
From the given graph, we can choose any two points: (0,-4) and (-2,0)

The general for of the linear straight line is:
y = mx + c where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept

First, we will calculate the slope using the following rule:
slope = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
slope (m) = (0--4) / (-2-0) = 4/-2 = -2
The equation of the line now is: y = -2x + c

Then, we will get the value of the c. To do so, we will choose any point and substitute in the equation. I will choose the point (0,-4)
y = -2x + c
-4 = -2(0) + c
c = -4

Based on the above calculations, the equation of the line is:
y = -2x - 4

A pair of equations is shown below:
Archy [21]

Slope Intercept Form - y = mx + b

First you need the slope or m which in the first equation is 6 and in the second is 5

Next the y-intercept or b which in the first equation is -4 and in the second is -3

Here is an image of both equation plotted on a graph where the first equation is purple and the second is green

Hope this helps, if you need anything else i will edit it in :)

edit: The to lines intercept at the point (1,2)

Sorry, i wasn't completely sure what you needed i haven't done this in a while. If you still need more, I'll try to help.
