First understand that this is a linear graph. Find 2 points on the graph. We can use (0,1) and (3,-3).
Look at how much the x increases, in this case the x value increases by 0+3, so 3.
Then see how much the y value increases (make sure to evaluate them in the same order) 1 + (-3) = -2.
So you know that the y value decreases by 2 units for every 3 unit increase in x. Therefore the slope is y=(-2/3)x
Then figure out what you add to the end. The y intercept is (0,1), so add 1 to the end of y=(-2/3)x to move it up.
Your resulting eq is y=(-2/3)x+1
Answer:
So any time you are multiplying something, you are making "groups of"
so 3 groups of 2 = 6, 4 groups of 3 = 12
But with decimals or fractions, because they are a value less than zero, the numbers become increasingly small instead of bigger, like standard multiplication.
So for example, 1 group of 1/2 = 1/2
2 groups of 1/4 = 1/2
and so on
hope this helps!
By using the information given on the graph, we can see that a = 3.

How to find the value of a?</h3>
Here we have an exponential of the form:
And by looking at the graph, it passes through (0, 4) and (2, 36), so we can write:
From the first equation we get that p = 4, replacing that on the second one we get:
So we conclude that a = 3.
