Question

Charlie graphs the equation y= –12x+2 .

Select all statements about Charlie's graph that are true.
A: The graph is a straight line.
B: The line does not pass through the origin.
C: The line passes through the point (0, –2) .
D: The slope of the line is 1/2 .
E: The y-intercept of the line is 2.

Answer 1

A, because its y=mx+b formula
Not B because the +2 is the y intercept so it wont pass though origin
Not C, because it passes though (0,2)
Not D, because the slope is -12
E because b in formula y=mx+b is the y intercept

so A and E

Answer 2

A, B and E

Explanation:

Lines with general formula y = mx + b are all straight lines.

The y intercept is 2 because of the + 2.

It pass through the point (0,2) not the origin.
