Question

the graph of linear function g passes through the points (-7, -4) and (7, 6) as shownwhat are the slope and y-intercept of the graph of g? A) the slope is 5/7 and the y-intercept is -1B) the slope is 5/7 and the y-intercept is 1C) the slope is 7/5 and the y-intercept is -1 D the slope is 7/5 and the y-intercept is 1

Answer 1

To find the slope of the graph, we have to use the following formula:

`m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)`

Replace for the given coordinates:

`m=(6-(-4))/(7-(-7))=(10)/(14)=(5)/(7)`

When looking at the graph we can observe that the y intercept is 1.

It means that the answer is B) the slope is 5/7 and the y-intercept is 1.
