Question

Find the slope and initial value of the graph below. Then write the equation of the line.

1. What is the initial value (y-intercept)?

2. What is the slope?

3. Write the equation of the line.

Answer 1

Y-intercept is (0,2) bc that’s where the line hits the y-axis.(the up and down line)
The slope is 1/2 because you go up one over two coordinate to get to the next dot.
The equation is y=Mx+b
M is the slope
X is the amount of times you use the slope
B is the initial value
Y=1/2x+2
