Math Problem Statement

Slope 1 y-intercept =0

Solution

The equation of a line in slope-intercept form is given by:

y=mx+by = mx + b

where:

  • mm is the slope of the line,
  • bb is the y-intercept.

In your case, the slope (mm) is 1 and the y-intercept (bb) is 0. Substituting these values into the formula, we get:

y=1x+0y = 1x + 0

This simplifies to:

y=xy = x

This is the equation of the line with slope 1 and y-intercept 0.

  1. What is the graphical representation of the line y=xy = x?
  2. How does changing the slope affect the graph of a line?
  3. What happens to the graph if the y-intercept changes to a non-zero value?
  4. How can we find the equation of a line if two points are given?
  5. What is the relationship between slope and the steepness of a line?

Tip: The slope of a line indicates how steep the line is. A slope of 1 means the line rises at a 45-degree angle.
