How do you graph slope and intercept things?

Thanx a lot O.G.

how to to powers

I just had a test on this yesterday so to me its pretty simple to find slope you have to know which direction its pointing if its pointing right then its going downward and when its up right then it would be positive. And anyway you should find a point where it intersects and when you find that point then you see how much it goes up and then across for example 7 over 2

To graph a slope-intercept equation, you typically need two key pieces of information: the slope (m) and the y-intercept (b). The slope represents the rate of change, and the y-intercept represents the point where the line crosses the y-axis.

Here are the steps to graph a slope-intercept equation:

1. Identify the slope (m) and the y-intercept (b) from the equation.
- The equation is usually written in the form: y = mx + b.

2. Plot the y-intercept:
- Locate the y-intercept on the y-axis. The y-intercept is the point (0, b).
- For example, if the equation is y = 2x + 3, the y-intercept is 3, so plot the point (0, 3).

3. Use the slope to find additional points:
- The slope represents the change in y divided by the change in x.
- If the slope is positive, you move up and to the right. If the slope is negative, you move down and to the right.
- Determine the change in y and x by looking at the slope's numerator and denominator. For example, if the slope is 2/3, you move up 2 units and right 3 units from the y-intercept.
- From the y-intercept, plot other points using the determined change in y and x.

4. Draw a line through the plotted points:
- Once you have plotted a few points, connect them with a straight line.
- Make sure the line extends beyond the plotted points to represent the entire line it represents.

By following these steps, you can graph slope and intercept equations accurately.
