A)The slope is –2, and the y-intercept is 6.
B)The slope is –2, and the y-intercept is 12.
C)The slope is 2, and the y-intercept is 6.
D)The slope is 2, and the y-intercept is 12.

Answer 1

the slope is -2 and the y-intercept is 12

Explanation:

1. choose two ordered pairs from the table (x1,y1) and (x2,y2).

2. write down the slope formula

3. replace the xs and ys by their values

4. subtract

5. divide

1. to solve for the y intercept, choose any one of the ordered pairs

2. replace the letters by their values

3. multiply
