Question

What is the equation of this graphed Line enter your answer in slope-intercept form in the Box ​

Answer 1

• y = -1/3x - 5

Explanation:

Given line with points (-6, -3) and (6, -7)

Slope intercept form:

• y = mx + b

We can see on the graph that y-intercept is b = -5

The slope is found using slope formula:

• m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
• m = (-7 - (-3))/(6 -(-6)) = -4/12 = -1/3

Th equation is:

• y = -1/3x - 5
