Nolan plots the y-intercept of a line at (0, 3) on the y-axis. He uses a slope of 2 to graph another point. He draws a line
through the two points. Which equation represents Nolan's line?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation

In y = mx + b form, the slope is in the m position and the y int is in the b position

y = mx + b

slope(m) = 2

y int (b) = 3

so ur equation for this line is : y = 2x + 3

OR

start at (0,3)...and since the slope is 2, go up 2  and to the right 1 and u will be at (1,5)

now u can take ur 2 sets of points (0,3) and (1,5)....

and we already know the slope is 2

y = mx + b

slope(m) = 2

use either of ur points (1,5)

now sub

5 = 1(2) + b

5 = 2 + b

5 - 2 = b

3 = b

so ur equation is : y = 2x + 3

same answer.....just choose which way u wanna do it
