Question

What are the slope and Y-intercept of the graph of the linear function shown on the grid?

Answer 1

Slope = 2 and y-intercept = 8

Explanation:

Use slope formula

m=y2-y1/x2-x1

m=16-12/4-2

m=4/2

Simplify

m=2

To find the y-intercept use point slope formula

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-12=2(x-2)

y-12=2x-4

Add 12 to both sides

y=2x+8

So, 8 is the y-intercept or (0,8)
