The answer is: y = |x + 6|
The answer is 1/3...I got this question on I-ready and I hate when I don't pass a lesson...hope this will help you guys out.
Answer:
4 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance like magnitude is simply a positive value
----------------------------
Since the y coordinate is the same
the distance is just the difference in the x coordinates
from -5 to -1 is a distance of 4
<u>Answer:</u>
y=-1/4x-1
<u>How to find the </u><u>slope</u>
To find the slope of the line you need to do the change in y/change in x. This is also known as the rise/run. To do this you count the spaces in between the two points.
In this graph the change in y (rise) is 2. The change in x (run) is 8. Since the line is going down they are negative. The rise/run is -2/8. This can be simplified to -1/4.
Slope: -1/4x
<u>How to find the y-intercept</u>
To find the y-intercept, you need to look at where the line crosses y.
In this graph the line crosses y at -1.
Y-intercept: -1
