Chapter 3: Q. 109 (page 276)

Graph the line of equation y= 3x-1 using its slope and y-intercept.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The slope of equation y=3x-1is -1 and the y-intercept is -1and graph of the line of equation is as:

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given information

The given equation of the line isy=3x-1.

02

Step 2. Identify the slope of the line

The equation is in slope intercept form as y=mx+bwhere ms the slope and (0,b)is the y-intercept.

Thus, the slope of equationy=3x-1is3.

03

Step 3. Identify the y-intercept

The y-intercept of equation y=3x-1is (0,-1)asb=-1.

04

Step 4. Graph the line of equation.

The graph of equation y=3x-1with slope 3and y-intercept (0,-1)is plotted below:
