Answer:

6. Slope = 2

7. y-intercept = 5

8. Equation: y = 2x + 5

Explanation:

Question 6

To find the slope of a line, define two points on the line:

  • (x₁, y₁) = (0, 5)
  • (x₂, y₂) = (1, 7)

Substitute these values into the slope formula and solve for m:


\implies \textsf{slope}\:(m)=(7-5)/(1-0)= (2)/(1)=2

Therefore, the slope of the graph is
\boxed{2}.

Question 7

The y-intercept is the y-value of the point at which the line crosses the y-axis.

From inspection of the given graph, the y-intercept is
\boxed{5}.

Question 8

Slope-intercept form of a linear equation:


y=mx+b

Where:

  • m = slope
  • b = y-intercept

Substitute the found slope and found y-intercept into the formula to create an equation for the line:


\boxed{y=2x+5}
