Answer:

the y intercept is where is starts (up and down) slope is how much you run up, or down and how much you run

Explanation:

For example the third croses at 5 thats the y-intercept. Know notice how you go up once and run two blocks for the slope. So the slope is 1/2x.

Answer for #3 y=1/2x+5

Note. Anytime you are running down the slope will be negative. If the line points up then its positive.

Answers should be in this form: 1) positive 2. negative 3. positive 4. negative 5. positive 6. negative

Answer:

1. slope = 4 over 2(2), y int = -8

2. slope = 2 over 3 , y int = 2

3. slope = 3 over 6(1/2), y int = 5

4. slope = 1 over 3, y int = -3

5. slope = 3 over 3(1) ,y int = 0

6. slope = 2 over 3 ,y int = -4

Explanation:

The numbers in the () is the simplified slope version if there is no () it cannot be simplified
