Question

Write an equation in slope intercept form that passes through the points (-4,1),(0,3)

Answer 1

`y=(1)/(2)x+3`

Explanation:

Slope intercept form is y = mx + b

Since the y-intercept is (0,3), b must equal 3.

(-4 * 1) + 3 = -1, so m cannot be 1.

(-4 * 0.5) + 3 = 1, so m is 0.5 or 1/2.
