You can put this solution on YOUR website! Graphing a line given a point and slope. Draw /1 through (-4,0) and (0,6).
---
slope = (6-0) / (0--4) = 6/4 = 3/2
-------------------------
Form: y = mx + b
(0,6) is the y-intercept
Equation:
y = (3/2)x + 6
===================
What is the slope of any line parallel to /1?
Ans: 3/2
-------------------------------
Draw /2 through the origin and parallel to /1
Thru the origin means the y-intercept is at 0
Equation:
y = (3/2)x + 0
y = (3/2)x
