Question

Write the equation for the graph shown below

Answer 1

y=0.5x-1

Explanation:

First you need to find the gradient of the line. Since x goes up by 0.5 every time y goes up by 1, the gradient is 0.5. Then you need to find the y intercept which is what x equals when y is equal to 0. When y equals zero x equals negative 1. If ylu use the equation y=mx+c where m=gradient and c=y intercept you get y=0.5x-1
