Chapter 3.4, Problem 1CYP

To determine

To write in slope intercept form for the line that having slope and y-intercept.Then graph.

  $m:\frac{1}{2}$

  $y:8$

Answer to Problem 1CYP

Line

  $y=\frac{1}{2}x+8$

Graph

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The line having slope and y-intercept

  $m:\frac{1}{2}$

  $y:8$

Formula used:

Slope intercept form

  $y=mx+b$

Calculation:

The line having slope and y-intercept

  $m:\frac{1}{2}$

  $y:8$

The general slope intercept form is given as

  $y=mx+c$

Where

  $m$ is slope

  $c$ is y-intercept

Then

  $c=8$

Substitute value of slope and y-intercept in general slope intercept form

  $y=\frac{1}{2}x+8$

Substituting $x=0$

Then

  $y=8$

Substituting $y=0$

Then

  $0=\frac{1}{2}x+8$

On solving

  $x=-16$
