Question

Write the equation of the green line.

Answer 1

y = -1/2x + 2

Explanation:

Let the equation of the green line be y = mx + c

From the graph, (-6, 5) and (0, 2) are 2 points on the green line.

m = (2-5)/(0-(-6)) = -1/2 (using gradient/slope formula)

sub (0, 2) and m = -1/2:

2 = -1/2(0) + c

2 = c

therefore,

equation of the line: y = -1/2x + 2

Answer 2

Y=-1/2x+2 is the correct answer in slope intercept form:)
