Question 825689: Graph a line with the indicated slope and y-intercept.
slope=2/7 and y-intercept (0,6)

Answer by Edwin McCravy(20055)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The slope is . The numerator, 2, of the slope is the "rise",
and the denominator of the slope, 7, is the "run". So we begin on
the y-axis at the y-intercept which has coordinates (0,6).

From that point, we draw the rise of 2, which means we draw the
green vertical line 2 units upward from that y-intercept:

That's the "rise" of 2. Now from the end of that rise, we draw the
"run" of 7, which is this green horizontal line going to the right
from the end-point of the "rise". Put a dot at the end of the "run":

We connect the two dots and that's the graph of the line.

You will soon learn if you haven't already, that the algebraic equation
of that line is

The coefficient of x is the slope and the number added
to it is the y-coordinate of the y-intercept (0,6).
