Graph the line with the given slope and y -intercept b .

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The graph of a line can be represented in slope-intercept form as y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. In this case, we are given a slope and y-intercept, so we can plug in the values and get the equation of the line.

The slope of the line is 3, and the y-intercept is -7. Therefore, the equation of the line is y = 3x - 7.

To graph this line, we can start by plotting the y-intercept, which is the point (0, -7). Then, we can use the slope to find other points on the line. Since the slope is positive, we can move up 3 units and to the right 1 unit to get to the next point on the line. We can continue this pattern to get more points and then connect them with a straight line.

When we follow this process, we get the graph shown in choice B.
