Question

State the x-intercept, y intercept and slope for each. Not sure how to do this

Answer 1

a)

The x-intercept is the point where the line crosses the x-axis

x-intercept = 8

The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis

y-intercept = 5

`Slope\text{ = }(rise)/(run)\text{ = }(-5)/(8)`

b)

The x-intercept is the point where the line crosses the x-axis

x-intercept = -2

The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis

y-inetrcept = 1

`Slope\text{ = }(rise)/(run)\text{ = }(1)/(2)\text{ }`
