Answer:

m is the slope of the equation y=mx+b. TO find the slope you look at the y intercept of the graph, b, and from that point find how much up/down and to the right/left you need to go. For example from point 0, 4, the y intercept, to another point on the graph (any point on the line would work) 2, 8 , I need to go up 4 units and to the right 2 units. The slope is 4/2 or just 2.'

If this is too confusing just find two points on the line in a graph and folow this equation: y2-y1 / x2-x1

where y2 is the y value of the second point, y1 is the y value of the first point, x1 is the x value of the first point and x2 is the value of x in the second point

Answer:

In the equation y=mx+b, m is the slope. The formula for slope is \frac{y_{1}-y_{2}  }{x_{1}-x_{2}  }, so to solve find any two points on the graph and plug them into the formula. You could also count the difference, remember that slope is the change in y over the change in x. For example, if y increases by 3 units and x increases by 2 units then the slope is 3/2.

frez [133]
Well it's 4 time the radius, so 4r
And it's 3 less than that, so
4r - 3 is the height

NikAS [45]

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{-3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{0})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{0}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{1}) \\\\\\ slope = m\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{1-0}{0-(-3)}\implies \cfrac{1}{0+3}\implies \cfrac{1}{3} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-0=\cfrac{1}{3}[x-(-3)] \\\\\\ y=\cfrac{1}{3}(x+3)\implies y=\cfrac{1}{3}x+1
