Help please :). I need to graph these points. I know 3/2 is the slope and -5 is the y-intercept, I just don’t know how to graph them.

Answer:

(0,-5)(2,-2)

Explanation:

So your first point will be on the y-axis on -5 because that is the y-intercept so that´s your starting point.and how i learned how to graph is that the top number on the slope (in your case 3) is how many you go up or down the y-axis and your bottom number (in your case 2) is how many you go across.

Example : 3/2 you go up 3 and to the right 2

You always go right when going across never to the left

Example 2: -3/2 you go down 3 and to the right 2

Hope this helped!

Just message if you still need help

Answer: DIY

Step-by-step explanation: i think the Y intercept is where the line goes through the Y axis line, which in this case would be -5. To graph slope, start at the Y intercept and go 3 up and 2 right

I think thats how you do it
