Question

use the slope and y-intercept to write the equation of the line. first, find the slope of the line. m = blank (with a grid graph of a line and a number pad)

Explanation:

Step1: Select two points on the line

Let's choose \((-4,0)\) and \((0,1)\) from the graph.

Step2: Use the slope formula \(m=\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}\)

Here, \(x_1=-4,y_1 = 0,x_2=0,y_2 = 1\).

$$m=\frac{1 - 0}{0-(-4)}=\frac{1}{4}$$

Answer:

\(\frac{1}{4}\)
