Question

Type the correct answer in each box.

The equation of the line in the graph is y = (blank) x (blank) .

Answer 1

Answer: The equation of the line in the graph is y = -1 x + -1 .

Answer 2

The dlope-intercept form:

`y=mx+b`

m - slope

b - y-intercept (0, b)

The formula of a slope:

`m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

We have two points from the graph

x-intercept: (-1, 0)

y-intercept: (0, - 1) → b = -1

Substitute to the formula of a slope:

`m=(-1-0)/(0-(-1))=(-1)/(1)=-1`

Answer: y = -1x - 1 = -x - 1
