as the y-intercept increases, the graph of the line shifts up.

as the y-intercept decreases, the graph of the line shifts down.

What are the slope and yintercept of line 5x 10y 15?

Without the inclusion of an equality sign and not knowing the plus or minus values of the given terms it can't be considered to be a straight line equation


How do you write an equation of a line that passes through the xintercep and yintercept?

You can write it either in standard form (ax + by = c) or in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b)


What happens to a line as its slope is incrementally changed from zero to undefined?

The line rotates anti-clockwise, from a horizontal to a vertical position.


What happens to a line when the y in tercept is changed?

When the y-intercept of a line is changed, the entire line shifts vertically without altering its slope. If the y-intercept increases, the line moves upward; if it decreases, the line moves downward. This change affects where the line crosses the y-axis, but the angle and direction of the line remain the same.


What happens to a line when the intercept is changed?

If the slope remains the same then the new and old lines are parallel. The whole line moves either up or down.


What happens to a line when y-intercept is changed?

It moves higher or lower on the plane, while remaining parallel to the original.


What happens to a line when the y-intercepts is changed?

When the y-intercept of a line is changed, the entire line shifts vertically without altering its slope. If the y-intercept increases, the line moves upward; if it decreases, the line moves downward. The slope remains constant, meaning the angle of inclination relative to the x-axis does not change. This results in a parallel shift of the line along the y-axis.


What happens when y equals x is changed to y equals x plus 2?

The whole line 'shifts up' by two units, and is parallel to the original line (same slope)


What happens to the line y equals -6x-2 when it is changed to y equals -6x plus 6?

It is translated upwards by 8 units.

What is the slope and yintercept of y plus 4x plus 3?

There is no slope nor intercept because there is no equation, simply an expression.


What happens when the line y x is changed to y x 2?

If you mean: y = x and y = x+2 then the lines are then parallel to each
