slope = 9; y-intercept = 4
slope = 3; y-intercept = 9
0
slope = 3; y-intercept = 6
slope = 0; y-intercept = 6

Answer 1

slope = 3; y-intercept = 6

Explanation:

The y intercept is where the x value is zero

x=0 and y =6 so the y intercept is 6

We can find the slope from

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

= (9-6)/(1-0)

= 3/1

The slope is 3
