Question

Choose the slope and y intercept on the graph 50 points

Answer 1

When we want to find the slope of a line, we divide its increase on the
`y`-axis by its increase on the
`x`-axis. In other words, we look at its
`tan(a)`. As you can see in the photo, I chose two points that exactly intersect the axes and connected them in a right triangle. I then divided the increase in the
`y`-axis (
`3`) by the increase in the
`x`-axis (
`4`). Since the line slopes to the right, its sign will be positive. Also, this line intersects the
`y`-axis
`(x=0)` at
`1`.
