Question

Use the graph to the right to write an equation of the line​

Answer 1

Answer: y = (1/8)x + 3.625

Step-by-step explanation:

slope: y = mx + b

change from 3 to 4 is 1, this is our rise

change from -5 to 3 is 8, this is our run

1/8 = m

this is a really bad explanation but I know that

1/8 is equal to 0.125.

since there are 5 spaces from (-5,3) to the y axis, and that the slope is 1/8, i can multiply 1/8 x 5 to get 5/8.

5/8 =.625

since the x intercept is in between 3 and 4, it is 3.625.

3.625 = b
