Question

Graph this line using the slope and y-intercept:

y=–2/5x + 6
Click to select points on the graph.

Answer 1

See explanation below

Explanation:

Start at (0,6) which is the y-intercept where b=6, then go down 2 units, and 5 units to the right which represents the slope m=-2/5 and mark that point. Repeat until you feel you're done and then connect the points to form the line of the equation.

For example, the next point after (0,6) would be (5,4) because by going 5 units to the right and 2 units down, we can represent this as (0+5,6-2) which is (5,4). I've attached a graph with some points to help draw the line.

Hope this was helpful!

Answer 2

Explanation:

start at the 6 then go down 2 Y and over 5X
