Observe the graph; the line is passing through origin (0, 0) and (2.5, 2).
\The line equation in slope-intercept form is , where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
First find the slope (m).
\The slope formula is .
(Replace
with 0, 0, 2.5 and 2)
(Apply additive identity property:
)
(Apply additive identity property:
)
(Find the value using a calculator:
)
Next find the y-intercept (b).
\ (Substitute
for m)
(Substitute 0, 0 for x and y)
(Apply zero product property:
)
Substitute 0.8 for m and 0 for b in the Slope-intercept form equation
\The line equation in slope-intercept form is .
