Responses

A coordinate plane shows the x-axis ranging from negative 9 to 9 in increments of 1 and the y-axis ranging from 11 to negative 11 in increments of 1. A line with arrows at both ends joins two plotted points. The coordinates of the plotted points are as follows: left parenthesis 0 comma 3 right parenthesis, and left parenthesis 4 comma 2 right parenthesis.

Answer 1

To graph the equation \(9 - x = 32y\) in slope-intercept form, we first need to convert it into the appropriate format \(y = mx + b\), where \(m\) is the slope and \(b\) is the y-intercept.

Starting with the given equation:
\[
9 - x = 32y
\]

Let's isolate \(y\):

1. Rearrange the equation to get \(32y\) alone on one side:
\[
32y = 9 - x
\]

2. Divide every term by 32 to solve for \(y\):
\[
y = \frac{9}{32} - \frac{1}{32}x
\]

Now we can rewrite this as:
\[
y = -\frac{1}{32}x + \frac{9}{32}
\]

From this form, we can see that the slope \(m\) is \(-\frac{1}{32}\) and the y-intercept \(b\) is \(\frac{9}{32}\).

### Plotting the Line

To plot the line, start at the y-intercept (\(0, \frac{9}{32}\)). Since \(\frac{9}{32}\) is approximately \(0.28125\), you can estimate this point on the y-axis.

Next, use the slope \(-\frac{1}{32}\):
- For every increase of 32 units in \(x\), \(y\) decreases by 1 unit.

### Example Points
1. **Y-Intercept**: (0, \(0.28125\))
2. **Another Point**: Move 32 units to the right (to \(x = 32\)), and decrease \(y\) by 1:
\[
(32, 0.28125 - 1) = (32, -0.71875)
\]

These two points can be used to draw the line.

### Conclusion
Choose the graph that accurately reflects these calculations and includes points around (0, 0.28125) and (32, -0.71875). Based on the provided responses, make sure the coordinates of the plotted points adhere to a similar pattern as determined.
