Which equation best represents the line shown on the grid? y = 3, undefined slope
y = 3, zero slope
x = 3, undefined slope
x = 3, zero slope
x = 3, undefined slope
Which equation is best represented by this graph?
y+2=75 x+7 y−2=75 x−7 y+2=57 x+7 y−2=57 x−7
y - 2 = 57, x - 7
The graph of a linear function is shown on the grid. Which equation is best represented by this graph?

y = − 74 x + 4
y = − 74 x + 7
y = − 47 x + 4
y = − 47 x + 7
The equation that best represents the graph is:

y = -74x + 7
The conversion of degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit can be represented by a linear relationship. The graph shows the linear relationship between y , the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit, and x , the temperature in degrees Celsius from the freezing point of water.
Which equation best represents this situation?

y = 59 x
y = 95 x
y = 59 x + 3 2
y = 95 x + 3 2
To convert Celsius to Fahrenheit, you multiply by 9/5 and add 32.

Therefore, the equation that best represents this situation is:
y = 95x + 32
The graph of a linear function is shown on the grid. What is the
rate of change of y with respect to x for this function?
7/9
3/4
− 7/9
− 3/4
To find the rate of change (slope) of a linear function, we look at the rise over the run. In other words, it is the change in y divided by the change in x between any two points on the line.

Looking at the grid, we see that for every 4 units in the positive direction of x, y changes by 3 units. This gives us a slope of 3/4.

Therefore, the rate of change of y with respect to x for this function is 3/4.
