Question

What is the slope-intercept form (y= mx+ b) of the equation of the line?

Hint: Find the y-intercept. Then count up and over (y/x) to the next point on the line to determine the slope.

Answer 1

Answer: up 2over 3

Explanation:

Answer 2

y = 2/3x + 2

Explanation:

The y-intercept of this graph is 2, since that's where the line hits the y-axis. Now, to find the slope, we have to find a point on the line that's exactly above a whole number. This point is (3, 4). To get to that point from (2, 0), count up 2 points and count 3 points to the right. Since slope is
`(rise)/(run)`, your slope is
`(2)/(3)` . Now, put it together to get
`y = (2)/(3) + 2` .
