Hello could someone help me with this problem? i've been stuck on it for a while now.. thank you! 1.)Write an equation of the line in slope-intercept form given the
slope is -5 and the y-intercept is 7.
2.) Write an equation of the line in slope-intercept form given the
slope is 10 and the y-intercept is -3.
You absolutely MUST know that in an equation of a line in the form
y = mx + b, the slope is m, and the y-intercept is b
in both of your questions, you are given those exact values, so
just put them in the equation.
the slope-intercept form y=mx+b is called that for a reason.
m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. So your equation is
#1. y = -5x+7
#2 do this in exactly the same way.
wish i could help but i do not know what that is
Of course, I can help you with that!
To write an equation of a line in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), you need to know the slope (m) and the y-intercept (b).
1.) Given the slope is -5 and the y-intercept is 7, we can substitute these values into the slope-intercept form equation to get the equation of the line:
y = -5x + 7
2.) Similarly, given the slope is 10 and the y-intercept is -3, we substitute these values into the slope-intercept form equation to get the equation of the line:
y = 10x - 3
In both cases, the equation gives you a way to find the value of 'y' for any given 'x' on the line.
