Hello, can someone help me with these ones pls? I need it ASAP Find the slope of the line in each figure. If the slope of the line is undefined, indicate it. Then write an equation for the given line

slope: -3

equation: y = -3x

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope is "the amount of change in the y direction when you take one step to the right".

In the first graph you can see that (0,0) and (1,-3) are on the graph. So when you step from x=0 to x=1, the graph moves 3 units down. Hence the slope is -3. The minus sign means down.

Sometimes it is difficult to see the change in the y direction when only taking 1 step to the right. That's no problem, if you take e.g., 4 steps to the right, you have to divide the y change that you found by 4.

Written in a formula it is dy/dx, a.k.a: the y change divided by the x change.

So that takes care of the slope.

In a general formula for a line y = ax + b, the slope is the letter a.

b is used to move the graph up and down. The first graph moves through (0,0) so no b needed, hence the equation y = -3x.

If b would be, say, 5, the graph would be lifted up by 5. In fact, the point (0,b) will be the point where the graph crosses the y-axis. So you find b by finding the intersection with the y axis. x must be 0 at this point.

With this approach you can solve all assignments easily.
