Answer:
y = 3x
Explanation:
Slope-intercept form of an equation is a shortcut, fill-in-the-blank form you can use to write the equation of a line.
Slope-intercept eq:
y = mx + b
You fill in slope where the m is. And you fill in the y-intercept for the b.
In your problem they gave you two points. You can calculate slope with two points. Subtract the y's, 3-0, put that on top of a fraction. And subtract x's, 1-0, put that on the bottom of the fraction. The slope, m, is 3/1, which is 3.
slope:
m = 3-0 / 1-0 = 3/1 =3
The y-intercept is actually given in your problem. The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis. The y-intercept is the point where the x is 0. They gave you the point (0,0) that is the y-intercept. So b = 0.
Fill the m and b in with the given numbers!
y = 3x + 0 Simplify.
y = 3x
