Question

Find equation of the line shown

Answer 1

y = x + 6

Explanation:

y = mx + b

Since (0,6) is your y-intercept (or just positive 6), you have your b part of the equation solved.

The line goes up at a continuous rate of up 1, over 1, so they cancel each other out, making the m part of your equation 1.

So, you have y = 1x + 6 and you change it to just y = x + 6 (since x itself automatically has a 1 before it, when it's by itself).

Hope this helps!
