Question 1030495: graph by using the slope and y-intercept. (Graph the y-intercept first and then the line.) y = -4x - 3
Answer by stanbon(75887)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! graph by using the slope and y-intercept. (Graph the y-intercept first and then the line.) y = -4x - 3
----------------------
y-intercept ?
Let x = 0, then y = -3
(0,-3)
-------------------
slope = -4 = -4/1
-----
Plot the point (0,-3)
Since slope = change in y/change in x,
From (0,-3) move 1 to the right and 4 down to (1,-7)
Plot the point (1,-7)
Draw the graph thru (0,-3) and (1,-7)
----------------------
