Question

Using graph paper, determine the line described by the given point and slope. Click to show the correct graph below.

(0, 6) and -1

Answer 1

Using graph paper, determine the line described by the given point and slope.

(0,6) and slope = -1

Here y intercept is (0,6)

We start graphing from y intercept

First plot the point at 6 on y axis

Now we use slope = -1

Slope = rise / run

given slope = -1 that is -1/1

So rise = -1 and run =1

For rise we move 1 unit down and for run we move 1 unit to the right

From (0,6) we move 1 unit down and 1 unit to the right

We land at (1,5)

we do the same again and land at (2,4)

then join all the points to get the graph of the line
