Answer:

y = 1/2 - 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

All we need to do is find the y-intercept of the line using the formula for slope intercept form [ y = mx + b ].

-3 = 1/2(-3) + b

-3 = -1.5 + b

-1.5 = b

We can put all the information we know/solved for into the formula.

y = 1/2 - 1.5

Best of Luck!

Answer:

The equation of the line is y = 1/2x - 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug in point (-3, 3) with slope 1/2 into y = mx + b

-3 = 1/2(-3) + b

-3 = -3/2 + b

+3/2 +3/2

-------------------

-3/2 = b

hence, y = 1/2x - 3/2

What is 76 rounded to the nearest hundred

Citrus2011 [14]

100. When rounding to the hundreds place, you must consider the value of the digit in the tens place. If the digit in the tens place is 5 or greater, the digit in the hundreds place increases by 1. If the digit in the tens place is 4 or less the digit in the hundreds place remains the same. In this case, the number in the hundreds place was originally zero.

Explanation:

To determine the slope and y-intercept of the equation, let us plot the coordinates in the slope-intercept form.

Analyzing the graph, some of the points that are on the straight line is (1,0),(3,5), (9,20)

Let us consider the points (1,0),(3,5) to determine the slope.

$\begin{aligned}m &=\frac{5-0}{3-1} \\&=\frac{5}{2} \\&=2.5\end{aligned}$
