Q. Graph this line using the slope and y-intercept:y=9x−7Click to select points on the graph.
Identify slope and y-intercept: Identify the slope (m) and y-intercept (b) from the equation y=9x−7. Slope m=9 and y-intercept b=−7.
Plot y-intercept: Plot the y-intercept on the graph at the point (0,−7).
Use slope to find another point: Use the slope to find another point. Since the slope is 9, it means rise over run is 19. From the y-intercept, go up 9 units and 1 unit to the right to find the next point.
Plot second point: Plot the second point at (1,2). Oops, made a mistake here. The second point should be at (1,2+7) which is (1,9) because we start at −7 on the y-axis and go up 9 units.
