Answer:

Is the question to develop the equation for the straight line shown?

If so, y = (3/4)x + b

Explanation:

Look for an equation with the form y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x = 0).

Calculate Slope using the Rise/Run.

Pick any two points. I chose (-4,0) and (4,6).

Going from left to right:

Rise = (6 - 0) = 6

Run = (4 - (-4)) = 8

Slope is Rise/Run, 6/8 or 3/4

So we have: y = (3/4)x + b

We can see that the y-intercept, b, is 3 (the value of y when x = 0).

The full equation becomes : y = (3/4)x + 3
