Question

Which equation represents the slope-intercept form of the line below?

Answer 1

Choice B: y = 1/2x + 8

Explanation:

Given

slope = 1/2

y-intercept = (0,8)

Put in y = mx + b form

slope is indicated by m

y-intercept is indicated by b

y = 1/2x + 8

Answer

y = 1/2x + 8

Answer 2

Answer: B.
`y=(1)/(2)x+8`

Explanation:

We know that the equation of a line in slope-intercept form is given by :-

`y=mx+c`, where m is the slope of the line and c is the y-intercept of the line.

For the given graph , we have

y-intercept = (0,8)

i.e. c=8

Slope =
`(1)/(2)`

i.e. m=8

Then, the equation of the given line in slope-intercept form will be :-

`y=(1)/(2)x+8`
