we have
<u>Statements</u>
<u>case A)</u> The graph is a straight line.
The statement is True
Because, this is a linear equation (see the attached figure)
<u>case B)</u> The line passes through the origin.
The statement is False
Because the point is not a solution of the equation
Verify
Substitute the value of x and y in the equation
------> is not true
the point is not a solution
therefore
The line does not pass through the origin
<u>case C)</u> The line passes through the point
The statement is True
Because the point is a solution of the equation
Verify
Substitute the value of x and y in the equation
------> is true
the point is a solution
therefore
The line passes through the point
<u>case D) </u>The slope of the line is
The statement is False
Because, the slope of the line is
<u>case E)</u> The y-intercept of the line is
The statement is False
we know that
The y-intercept is the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero
so
For
find the value of y
the y-intercept is equal to
