To determine the equation of a graph in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), we need to identify the slope (m) and the y-intercept (b).
From the options you provided, let's analyze them:
-
\( y = 3x + 5 \)
- Slope (m) = 3
- Y-intercept (b) = 5
-
\( y = \frac{3}{1}x + 6 \) (which simplifies to \( y = 3x + 6 \))
- Slope (m) = 3
- Y-intercept (b) = 6
-
\( y = 6x + 3 \)
- Slope (m) = 6
- Y-intercept (b) = 3
-
\( y = 3x + 6 \)
- Slope (m) = 3
- Y-intercept (b) = 6
The equations \( y = 3x + 5 \) and \( y = 3x + 6 \) have the same slope but different y-intercepts, indicating they are parallel. The equation \( y = 6x + 3 \) has a different slope.
If you're looking for the equation of a graph, please clarify any specific points or characteristics from the graph, so we can determine which equation accurately represents it. Otherwise, you have several equations in slope-intercept form mentioned here.
