Charlie graphs the equation y= –1/2x 2 . select all statements about charlie's graph that are true.
a. the graph is a straight line.
b. the line does not pass through the origin.
c. the line passes through the point (0, –2) .
d. the slope of the line is 12 .
e. the y-intercept of the line is 2.
The equation is y = 1/2 x + 2 Formula of the linear equation ( in slope-intercept form ): y = m x + b m = 1/2, b = 2 0 = - 1/2 * 0 + 2 0 ≠ 2 ( it does not pass through the origin ) - 2 = 1/2 * 0 + 2 - 2 ≠ 2 Answer: True statements are: A ) The graph is a straight line. B ) The line does not pass through the origin. E ) the y-intercept of the line is 2.
