Question

a line is graphed on the xy-plane. If the line has a positive slope and a negative y-intercept, which of the following points cannot lie on the line

Answer 1

Answer: The correct graph is graph C.

Step-by-step explanation: Locate -3 on the y-axis. From there go up one and to the right one since the slope is 1 or 1/ 1 .

Which of the lines graphed has a slope of 1 and a y-intercept of -3?

Answer 2

If the line has a positive slope and a negative y-intercept, then the points cannot lie on the line where x is negative and y is positive. The points never lie at quadrant 1. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. Feel free to ask more questions.
