To determine whether the graph is correct for the equation \( y = 15x \), we need to analyze the points given:
-
The points on the graph are \( (0, 0) \) and \( (5, 1) \).
-
First, check if the point \( (0, 0) \) satisfies the equation \( y = 15x \):
- For \( x = 0 \): \[ y = 15(0) = 0 \] Thus, \( (0, 0) \) does satisfy the equation.
-
Now, check the point \( (5, 1) \) with the equation \( y = 15x \):
- For \( x = 5 \): \[ y = 15(5) = 75 \] The point \( (5, 1) \) does not satisfy the equation since \( 1 \neq 75 \).
-
Additionally, we can calculate the slope (\( m \)) based on the two given points:
- Rise = \( 1 - 0 = 1 \)
- Run = \( 5 - 0 = 5 \)
- Thus, the slope \( m = \frac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}} = \frac{1}{5} \).
Since the slope derived from the points is \( \frac{1}{5} \), which does not match the slope of \( 15 \) in the equation \( y = 15x \), we conclude that the graph is not correctly representing the equation.
Therefore, the correct response is: No, it is not the correct graph because the slope \( m = \frac{1}{5} \).
