Question

M = ______
B = ______
Y =______

Answer 1

M = 3

B = (0, -2)

Y = 3x - 2

Explanation:

The slope-intercept form is y = mx + b

m = the slope (rise/run or (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1))

b = y-intercept

Pick 2 points (0, -2) (2, 1)

We see the y increase by 3 and the x increase by 1, so the slope is

m = 3

b = (0, -2)

The equation is y = 3x - 2
