Question 4(Multiple Choice Worth 5 points)

(05.03 MC)A graph is shown below:

A graph is shown. The values on the x axis are 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, and 15. The values on the y axis are 0, 9, 18, 27, 36, and 45. Points are shown on ordered pairs 0, 36 and 3, 27 and 6, 18 and 9, 9 and 12, 0. These points are connected by a line

What is the equation of the line in slope-intercept form?

y = 36x − 3
y = −3x + 36
y = −3x + 12
y = −12x + 3

Answer 1

y = -3x + 36

Explanation:

first let's start with a formula.

y = mx + b

m equals the slope and b equals the y intercept.

slope can also be indetified as a rate of change.

so, looking at the graph we can see that the y intercept is (0, 36) or 36 and the rate of change is 3 subtracted.

sorry if this is wrong im not too sure myself. and sorry this is 5 years late, but alas it's too late to turn back now since i have already wrote all this.
