Learn how to graph an equation in slope intercept form without a b

The video tutorial explains how to graph a line in slope-intercept form when the Y-intercept (B) is zero. It clarifies that the absence of B means the Y-intercept is at the origin (0,0). The tutorial demonstrates how to graph the line using the slope (M), which is 5/2, by plotting points and creating a slope triangle. It also shows how to graph in both positive and negative directions to form the line.

What is the y-intercept of the equation y = 5/2x?

• (0, 0)

• (2, 5)

• (5, 0)

• (0, 5)

How do you determine the slope from the equation y = 5/2x?

• The slope is the sum of x and y coefficients.

• The slope is the y-intercept, which is 0.

• The slope is the coefficient of x, which is 5/2.

• The slope is always 1 in this form.

Where should you place the first point when graphing the line y = 5/2x?

• At (0, 0)

• At (5, 2)

• At (1, 1)

• At (2, 5)

What does the slope of 5/2 indicate when graphing the line?

• Move down 2 units and left 5 units from the y-intercept.

• Move down 5 units and left 2 units from the y-intercept.

• Move up 2 units and right 5 units from the y-intercept.

• Move up 5 units and right 2 units from the y-intercept.

How can you graph the line in the opposite direction using the slope?

• Move up 2 units and right 5 units.

• Move down 5 units and left 2 units.

• Move down 2 units and left 5 units.

• Move up 5 units and right 2 units.
