Answer 1

Between the two points, the x value goes down 1 and the y goes down 7. A very steep downward slope of -7. The equation of the line is y=-7x

Answer 2

Answer:

$y=7x$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a graph. We are asked to find the equation of the line.

First of all, we will find slope of line using points (1,7) and (0,0).

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$m=\frac{7-0}{1-0}$

$m=\frac{7}{1}$

$m=7$

We can see that y-intercept is 0.

We will write he equation in slope-intercept form $y=mx+b$, where b represents y-intercept and m represents slope.

$y=7x+0$

$y=7x$

Therefore, our required equation is $y=7x$.
