slope = 1
y-intercept = 1.5
Solution
The equation provided in your query appears to describe a linear equation where the slope and the y-intercept are given as follows:
- Slope = 1
- Y-intercept = 1.5
In slope-intercept form, , where is the slope and is the y-intercept, the equation for this line would be:
This tells us:
- The line rises one unit vertically for every one unit it moves horizontally (slope ).
- The line crosses the y-axis at .
Let me know if you’d like further clarification or assistance analyzing this graph.
Here are 5 related questions for practice:
- How do you find the slope of a line from two points on the graph?
- What is the slope and y-intercept of the equation ?
- How do you convert a linear equation from standard form to slope-intercept form?
- What does a slope of 0 represent on a graph?
- How does the slope affect the steepness of a line?
Tip: To confirm a slope visually, choose two points on the line, calculate the rise over run (), and verify it matches the equation.
