1. Problem Description

The problem asks us to find the equation of line ll and line mm in slope-intercept form. The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is y=mx+by = mx + b, where mm is the slope and bb is the y-intercept.

2. Solution Steps

a. Find the equation of line ll.
First, we need to find two points on the line ll. From the graph, we can observe that the line passes through the points (0,0)(0,0) and (4,4)(4,4).
The slope mm is given by
m=y2y1x2x1m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}.
Using the points (0,0)(0,0) and (4,4)(4,4), we have
m=4040=44=1m = \frac{4-0}{4-0} = \frac{4}{4} = 1.
The y-intercept is the point where the line intersects the y-axis. From the graph, we can see that the line ll intersects the y-axis at the point (0,0)(0,0). Therefore, the y-intercept is b=0b=0.
The equation of line ll in slope-intercept form is
y=mx+b=1x+0=xy = mx + b = 1x + 0 = x.
Thus, y=xy = x.
b. Find the equation of line mm.
We need to find two points on the line mm. From the graph, we can observe that the line passes through the points (4,4)(-4,4) and (4,0)(4,0).
The slope mm is given by
m=y2y1x2x1m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}.
Using the points (4,4)(-4,4) and (4,0)(4,0), we have
m=044(4)=44+4=48=12m = \frac{0-4}{4-(-4)} = \frac{-4}{4+4} = \frac{-4}{8} = -\frac{1}{2}.
The y-intercept is the point where the line intersects the y-axis. From the graph, we can see that the line mm intersects the y-axis at the point (0,2)(0,2). Therefore, the y-intercept is b=2b=2.
The equation of line mm in slope-intercept form is
y=mx+b=12x+2y = mx + b = -\frac{1}{2}x + 2.

3. Final Answer

a. The equation of line ll is y=xy=x.
b. The equation of line mm is y=12x+2y=-\frac{1}{2}x + 2.
