Graph y=-1/4x+5 how do you graph this?

Hey there!!

The given equation is slope-intercept form.

... y = mx + b. In this equation, the 'b' is the y-intercept and the m i the slope.

Given:

... y = -1/4x + 5

First, we will have to place the point at ( 0,5 ) as the y-intercept is 5.

Now, taking the (0,5) as the start, we will have to place the other point after moving down one unit and 4 across as the slope is -1/4.

Hence, the two points we will get doing this are (0,5) and (4,4)

Now, we will need to connect these two points and draw arrow at the end.

We now have a line!

Hope my answer helps!

Happy Thanksgiving! :)

step-by-step explanation:

y = 3x+4

step-by-step explanation:

to find the slope

slope = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

    = (-8-4)/ (-4-0)

    = -12/-4

  = 3

using the slope intercept form of a line

y= mx+b

we know the slope is 3

we know the y intercept is 4 ( the point where it crosses the y axis or x=0)

y = 3x+4
