To write the equations for Lines J, K, and L in the slope-intercept form \( y = mx + b \), we need the values for the slope \( m \) and the y-intercept \( b \) for each line. Since I cannot see the graph you are referring to, I will describe how you can derive these equations given the necessary information:
-
Identify Points: If you have points that the lines pass through (for example, (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂)), you can find the slope \( m \) using the formula: \[ m = \frac{y₂ - y₁}{x₂ - x₁} \]
-
Y-Intercept (b): Once you have the slope \( m \), you can find the y-intercept \( b \) using one of the points on the line: \[ b = y - mx \] Just plug in the x and y values of the point you used.
-
Construct the Equation: With the values of \( m \) and \( b \), you can construct the equation for the line in the form \( y = mx + b \).
Please provide the coordinates of points on Lines J, K, and L, or any other relevant details (like the slope or y-intercept), and I can assist you in writing the equations for those lines.
