Question

What is the slope, m, and y-intercept for the line that is plotted on the grid below?

On a coordinate plane, a line goes through points (0, 4) and (negative 2, 0).
m = One-half, (0, –2)
m = One-half, (0, 4)
m = 2, (0, –2)
m = 2, (0, 4)

Answer 1

Slope m = (4 − 0)/(0 − (−2)) = 4/2 = 2, and the y-intercept is (0, 4). So: m = 2, (0, 4).
