A linear function contains the following points: 0,-3 and 6,15.
WHat is the slope and y-intercept

Sagot :

The slope of the linear function is 3 and the y-intercept is -3 if the linear function contains the following points: (0,-3) and (6,15)

What is the slope?

The ratio that y increase as x increases is the slope of a line. The slope of a line reflects how steep it is, but how much y increases as x increases. Anywhere on the line, the slope stays unchanged (the same).

[tex]\rm m =\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

We have:

A linear function contains the following points: (0,-3) and (6,15)

The slope:

[tex]\rm m =\dfrac{15-(-3)}{6-0}[/tex]

m = 18/6

m = 3

The equation of a line:

y = mx + c

Plug x = 0, y = -3

-3 = c

Thus, the slope of the linear function is 3 and the y-intercept is -3 if the linear function contains the following points: (0,-3) and (6,15)
