Jamila wants to play a game called “Guess My Line.” She gives you the following hint: “Two points on my line are
What is the growth rate of her line? A graph of the line may help.
Growth rate: when
grows by , grows by . What is the
-intercept of her line? The
-intercept is where the line crosses the -axis. One strategy is to use the slope triangle to continue the line and then simply read the
-intercept (where the line crosses the -axis) right off the graph. -intercept . What is the equation of her line?
Use the rate of growth and the
-intercept to write an equation for the line. the rate of growth the -coordinate in the -intercept
