Question

Here's a graph of a linear function. Write the

Answer 1

Answer:

y = ⅓x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the slope using two points on the line, say (0, -3) and (6, 0):

$\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{0 - (-3)}{6 - 0} = \frac{3}{6} = \frac{1}{3}$

Slope (m) = ⅓

Find the y-intercept (b):

The line intercepts the y-axis at y = -3. So b = -3

Next, substitute m = ⅓ and b = -3 into y = mx + b (slope-intercept form):

y = ⅓(x) + (-3)

y = ⅓x - 3
