Question

Graph the line with slope 1/2 and y-intercept -9

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer is in the screenshot. The equation for the line is y=1/2 x - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

To graph a line when you know the slope and y intercept, you make a point on the y intercept. Your y intercept iIs -9 so you would make a point on (0,-9).

After you have the point on (0,-9) you use the slope to create the rest of your line. Slope is just Rise  

                            Run

Your slope is 1/2. That means your next point on the line is up 1 unit and right 2 units. The next point on the line is (2,-8).

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

slope is the x axis and y intercept is the y axis

so 1/2 will go on the x axis and -9 will go on the y axis

1/2 uses the rise over run method
