Answer: D. y = 3x − 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + c
Where c = intercept
Slope, m =change in value of y on the vertical axis / change in value of x on the horizontal axis
change in the value of y = y2 - y1
Change in value of x = x2 -x1
y2 = final value of y
y 1 = initial value of y
x2 = final value of x
x1 = initial value of x
From the graph,
y2 = 2
y1 = - 1
x2 = 1
x1 = 0
Slope,m = (2 - - 1)/(1 - 0) = 3/1 = 3
To determine the intercept, we would substitute x = 1, y = 2 and m= 3 into y = mx + c
y = mx + c. It becomes
2 = 3 × 1 + c = 3 + c
c = 2 - 3 = - 1
The equation becomes
y = 3x - 1
Answer:
-1.375
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is C.) y=2x+1 since the slope is going upward, and will match the scatter plot.
2x + y = 1
2x - 2x + y = 1 - 2x
y = 1 - 2x
y = -2x + 1
4x + 2y = -1
4x + 2(-2x + 1) = -1
4x + 2(-2x) + 2(1) = -1
4x - 4x + 2 = -1
2 ≠ -1
The solution of the problem can't be a solution because they are both parallel lines, which means they have no solution.
