Answer:

y = 2x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Find the slope. You find the slope by using the formula y2-y1/x2-x1. (2, 1) and (4, 5) are our points. Let's find our values.

y2= 5

y1= 1

x2 = 4

x1 = 2

Plug in the numbers into the equation. 5 - 1 is 4. 4 - 2 is 2. 4/2 is 2. There. Our slope is 2.

Step 2: Find the b value. Keep in mind that an equation in point-slope form is y = mx + b, where m = the slope, and b = the y-intercept. For this part, you will plug in one of the points as x and y to find the b value. let's use point (4, 5)

The equation then becomes 5 = 2(4) + b. As we know, 2 * 4 is 8. Subtract 8 on both sides of the equation to cancel out the right side and isolate the b variable. 5 - 8 is -3. Even if you use the other point for the equation (1 = 2(2) +b), you should get the same answer of -3.

A word processor that was purchased for $600
klasskru [66]
The slope of the graph shows the rate of change, or, in this case, the rate of depreciation, which you are told is $100 per year. So, depending upon the units used in your graph, the slope will be 100/1, and since it is a decrease as the years increase, it will have a negative slope, i.e. -100/1. 

Or, if you had drawn your graph with units of $100 dollars on the y-axis, then you might say that the slope was -1 / 1. 

The corresponding formula would of course be 

y = 600 - 100t 

where y = value after t years, and (if you are into calculus) differentiating would give you 

slope = dy/dt = -100
