Problem 1
It appears the line is going through the points (-1,-4) and (0,5)
Let's find the slope
[tex](x_1,y_1) = (-1,-4) \text{ and } (x_2,y_2) = (0,5)\\\\m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}\\\\m = \frac{5 - (-4)}{0 - (-1)}\\\\m = \frac{5 + 4}{0 + 1}\\\\m = \frac{9}{1}\\\\m = 9\\\\[/tex]
The slope is 9
The y intercept is b = 5 as this is where the graph crosses the y axis.
We go from y = mx+b to y = 9x+5
Answer: y = 9x+5
=======================================================
Problem 2
This line goes through the points (0,4) and (5,5)
We'll follow the same exact steps as before
First we need the slope
[tex](x_1,y_1) = (0,4) \text{ and } (x_2,y_2) = (5,5)\\\\m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}\\\\m = \frac{5 - 4}{5 - 0}\\\\m = \frac{1}{5}\\\\[/tex]
The y intercept is the y coordinate of (0,4) so it's b = 4
Answer: [tex]y = \frac{1}{5}x+4[/tex]
