Question

Write the equation of the line in fully simplified slope-intercept form.

Answer 1

Use 2 points on the line to find the slope.

Slope = change in y / change in x

The two points used: (-2,5) and ( 1,-10)

slope = (-10 -5) /(1- -2) = -15/3 = -5

the y intercept is where the line is at in the y direction when it crosses the x axis at 0.

the y intercept is -5

The equation is y = -5x -5

Answer 2
