Charlie graphs the equation y= – 1 2 x+2 y= –12x+2 . Select all statements about Charlie's graph that are true. The graph is a straight line. The line does not pass through the origin. The line passes through the point (0, –2) (0, –2) . The slope of the line is 1 2 12 . The y-intercept of the line is 2.
y = -12x + 2
The graph is a straight line....true, it is linear
The line does not pass thru the origin (0,0).....true, it does not
The line passes thru the point (0,-2)...false, it does not
The y int of the line is 2......true, it is
Answer:
The graph is a straight line.
The line does not pass through the origin.
The y-intercept of the line is 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equation,
\(y=-\frac{1}{2}x+2\)
Since, the function in the form of y = mx + c represents a straight line, Where m = slope of the line,
Thus, \(y=-\frac{1}{2}x+2\) is the straight line,
Its slope is \(-\frac{1}{2}\)
Also, for (0, 0),
\(0=-\frac{1}{2}(0) + 2\) ( False )
i.e. the line does not pass through the origin.
For y-intercept,
x = 0,
\(\implies y = -\frac{1}{2}(0) + 2\implies y = 2\)
i.e. y-intercept of the line is 2.
