Question

Near function is to de

What are the slope and the y-intercept of the function?
Enter numbers in the boxes provided.
slope:
y-intercept:

Answer 1

The required data are

slope = 1/4

y-intercept = -2

How to find the slope

The slope, m is calculated using the points on the graph (-4, -3) and (4, -1)

m = (y₀ - y₁) / (x₀ - x₁)

m = (-3 - -1) / (-4- 4)

m = (-2) / (-8)

m = 1/4

c = y intercept, from the graph is -2
