I need help graphing the slope. Its says graph the line described. Through (0,4); m= -1/2
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------
\n" ); document.write( "You don't graph a slope. You graph equations.
\n" ); document.write( "-----------
\n" ); document.write( "You can graph the equation that has a y-intercept of (0,4) and a slope of -1/2
\n" ); document.write( "----------
\n" ); document.write( "One way to do it:
\n" ); document.write( "Plot the y-int (0,4)
\n" ); document.write( "The graph's y value decreases 1 for each increase of 2 in the x direction.
\n" ); document.write( "That makes other points (2,3), (4,2), etc.
\n" ); document.write( "Plot at least 2 points, draw a line thru them.
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------
\n" ); document.write( "Another way:
\n" ); document.write( "Use the equation to find points.
\n" ); document.write( "(0,4); m= -1/2 --> y = (-1/2)x + 4
\n" ); document.write( "Pick values of x and find y.
\n" ); document.write( "Plot the points
\n" ); document.write( "Draw a line thru them
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
