Question

Y intercept x intercept and the slope

Answer 1

Answer:

y-intercept = (0, - 3)

x-intercept = (-6, 0)

slope = - 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The y intercept is the value of y when the x = 0. By looking at the graph, we can tell that when x = 0, y = - 3. Likewise for the x-intercept.

We can use the slope formula to determine the slope.

m = y2 - y1/ x2 - x1

You can choose any 2 points on the line and substitute in the formula. I chose the y and x intercepts for easier calculations.

m = - 3 - 0/ 0 - (- 6)

m = - 3/ 6

m = - 1/2
