The graph of a function is a line with a slope of 3 and a y-intercept of (0, 4)

Complete the equation that describes the function.

y = ? x + ?

It's one number only for each question mark

1 answer

To write the equation of a line in the slope-intercept form \(y = mx + b\), where \(m\) is the slope and \(b\) is the y-intercept:

  • The slope \(m\) is given as 3.
  • The y-intercept \(b\) is given as 4.

Therefore, the equation is:

\[ y = 3x + 4 \]

So, the completed equation is:

y = 3x + 4

To fill in the question marks:

y = ? x + ?

The answers are:

First question mark: 3
Second question mark: 4
