Answer:
y = 1x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
We will use the slope equation for this: y = mx + b
y is our output/answer
m is our slope, or the rate of change
x is our x coordinate. For example, in (3,2) x would be 3.
b is our y intercept, or where the line passes through the y axis.
Knowing this, we can fill out the blanks.
when we look at one point on the grid, and then find the next closest number from the point we chose, we can see that the slope is 1 so we now have: y = 1x + b
to find b, we find where the line passes over the y axis which on our grid is -5. Normally we would write: y = 1x + 5 Since we have a negative 5 or -5, we will change the + to a -
This means we write y = 1x -5.
I hope this helps you and have a great day :D
