Question

How do I Graph the line with the given slope m and y-intercept b.
M=-4/3,b=2

Answer 1

So first start at the y-intercept which is also “b”
Then look at your slope “m” and the top is the vertical movement and the denominator is the horizontal movement. So to solve this, you start at (0,2) and you have two choices, to go down 4 and right three OR up 4 left 3.
Remember: if the slope a integer, the denominator is one so you can move left or right one according
