(assuming if the a is positive)
If b is greater than 1 the function is increasing
if b is between 0 and 1, the function is decreasing
The y intercept of 4 means the graph crosses the vertical y axis at 4. More specifically this location is (0,4)
Start at (0,4) and move down 5 units and then move to the right 1 unit. You should arrive at (1,-1). The movement rule of "down 5, over to the right 1" is taken exactly from the slope of -5 = -5/1.
After plotting the two points (0,4) and (1,-1), draw a straight line through them both. Extend this line as far as you can in either direction. The graph is now completed.
<h3>In summary, this line goes through (0,4) and (1,-1)</h3>
Side note: The equation of this line is y = -5x+4. It is in slope intercept form.
.25*3=.75
.375*2=.75
.5*2=2.0
.625*2=1.25
.75*3=2.25
.875*2=1.75
1*2=2
1.25*2=2.5
1.5*2=3
1.5+2=3.5
1.25+2.25=3.5+3.5=7
3.5+1.75=5.25
5.25+4.5=9.75
9.75+3=12.75
answer = 12.75in^2
