Problem 1 Got It? What are the slope and y -intercept of the graph of the equation?

  • 3
  • -3
  • ½
  • -½
  • Slope
  • y-intercept

Problem 5 Got It? Graph the linear equation.
Be sure to include relevant graph detail: label axes, indicate units on both axes, and use arrows to represent end behavior, as appropriate.
