Question

Graph the line with slope 3/2 and y-intercept −9.

Answer 1

Solution:

Given:

$\begin{gathered} slope,m=\frac{3}{2} \\ y-intercept,b=-9 \end{gathered}$

To graph the line, the equation of the line is needed.

Using the equation of a line in slope-intercept form,

$\begin{gathered} y=mx+b,\text{ the equation of the line is;} \\ y=\frac{3}{2}x+(-9) \\ y=\frac{3}{2}x-9 \end{gathered}$

The graph of the line using a graph plotter is;
