Answer:
The x-intercept is (3, 0)
The y-intercept is (0, -1)
The slope is 1/3
The equation of the line is
[tex]y=\frac{1}{3}x-1[/tex]
Explanation:
From the given graph, the line intercepts the x axis at the point 3, and intercepts the y-axis at the point -1
The x-intercept is (3, 0)
The y-intercept is (0, -1)
The slope, which is rise/run is given as:
[tex]\begin{gathered} S=\frac{-1-0}{0-3} \\ \\ =\frac{-1}{-3} \\ \\ =\frac{1}{3} \end{gathered}[/tex]
The equation of the line is now:
y = mx + c
Where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept
[tex]y=\frac{1}{3}x-1[/tex]
