Question

EMERGENCY!!!!! What is the slope and Y intercept of (-2,0) (4,1)??!?!!??

Answer 1

• y-intercept =  $\boxed{\sf \dfrac{1}{3}}$

• slope =  $\boxed{\dfrac{1}{6}}$

given coordinates: (-2,0) (4,1)

$\sf slope \ formula:\dfrac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

→   $\dfrac{1-0}{4--2}$

→      $\dfrac{1}{6}$

equation:

→  $\sf y - 0 = \dfrac{1}{6} ( x- -2)$

→  $\sf y = \dfrac{1}{6} x + \dfrac{1}{3}$

To find y-intercept, put x as 0.

→  $\sf y = \dfrac{1}{6} x +\dfrac{1}{3}$

→  $\sf y = \dfrac{1}{6} (0) +\dfrac{1}{3}$

→  $\sf y = \dfrac{1}{3}$

Answer 2

Answer:

Slope= 1/6    Y-intercept= 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

1-0=1

4-(-2)=6

Slope = 1/6

y-0= 1/6 (x-(-2))

y-0= 1/6x + 1/3

Y intercept is 1/3
