Math Problem Statement
Solution
To find the values of (the slope) and (the y-intercept) for the given line, we need to analyze the graph.
-
Finding the slope :
- The slope is determined by the ratio of the change in to the change in between any two points on the line.
- From the graph, two points on the line are clearly (0, 0) and (10, 10).
-
Finding the y-intercept :
- The y-intercept is the value of when .
- From the graph, it is clear that the line passes through the origin (0, 0), so .
Thus, the values are:

- How can you find the x-intercept of a line?
- What are parallel and perpendicular lines and how do their slopes relate?
- How do you convert the standard form of a line's equation to slope-intercept form?
Tip: When working with graphs, always ensure you accurately read the coordinates of the points to correctly determine the slope and intercepts.
