Question

Use the image to answer the question.
An illustration of a coordinate plane with four quadrants shows the x and y axes extending from negative 5 to 5 in increments of 1. An upward slanting line is plotted on the coordinate plane. The upward slanting line with arrows on both ends passes through the following closed points: left parenthesis 0 comma 0 right parenthesis and left parenthesis 2 comma 3 right parenthesis.

Determine the initial value and the rate of change of the linear function given in the graph.

(1 point)

Answer 1

Initial value (y-intercept) = 0.
Rate of change (slope) = (3 − 0)/(2 − 0) = 3/2 (or 1.5).
