Mark thinks the equation y=6x+4 will match the red solid graph. Mia thinks it will match the blue dotted graph. Who’s right? Explain your answer.

Technically neither, but Mia is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

Since our slope m is equal to 6, it is a positive number. That means that the slope/line will be positive, so the line should be going up, not down. That means the blue line would be correct. Therefore, Mia is correct.

Technicality:

Since the blue line is dotted, the equation should be a inequality and not a linear equation. No solutions on the line would technically work. If the equation was y < 6x + 4 or something with an inequality sign, then it would be correct.

answer: i believe it’s 245.04
