Write the equation of the line with the given slope and y-intercept.
slope = 1/2
y-intercept = 7
A)y = 7x + 1/2 <-- or is it C?
B)y = 1/2x + 7
C)x = 7y + 1/2
D)x = 1/2y + 7
oh my
y = mx + b ,
where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
m= 1/2 and y-intercept is 7.
so x= 1/2x + 7
close ...
y = 1/2x + 7
To write the equation of a line given its slope and y-intercept, you need to use the slope-intercept form of a linear equation, which is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
In this case, the given slope is 1/2 and the y-intercept is 7. So, the equation of the line is:
y = (1/2)x + 7
Therefore, the correct equation is B) y = 1/2x + 7.
