Question 358189: The problem says graph each equation using slope and y-intercept: y=3x+2. I just need one example to get going. Thanks Found 2 solutions by scott8148, 467598:Answer by scott8148(6628) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! the general slope-intercept equation is ___ y = mx + b , where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept
the definition of slope is ___ (change in y) / (change in x)
to graph:
___ find b on the y-axis (this is the y-intercept point)
___ move m units along the y-axis from b (up if m is positive , down if m is negative)
___ now move one unit to the right (the positive x-direction) this is the "slope point"
___ draw the line (graph) through the two points
if the slope is a fraction (E/F)
___ you can go E units on the y axis and then F units in the x-direction
