Question

Use the graph of the line to answer each question.

a. what are the intercepts of the line?
b. what is the slope of the line?
c. write a linear equation for the line

Answer 1

The y intercept (b) is where is crosses the y axis = 5

The x intercept is where is crosses the x axis = 4

The slope is rise over run or y2 - y1/x2 - x1

m = 0 - 5/4 - 0

m = -5/4

y = mx +b

y = -5/4x + 5
