Math Problem Statement

Graph the equation y = -3x + 7.

Solution

It seems like the graph in the image is supposed to represent the linear equation y=3x+7y = -3x + 7. However, the line drawn in the graph is incorrect, as it appears to be horizontal rather than reflecting the negative slope of the equation.

Correct Graph Analysis:

  1. Slope and Intercept:

    • The slope m=3m = -3 indicates the line should decrease by 3 units for every increase of 1 unit in xx.
    • The y-intercept is 7, meaning the line should cross the y-axis at (0,7)(0, 7).
  2. **Incorrect
