Question

Given the point (-4, 2) and the y intercept (0, -5) write the equation of the line in slope-

Answer 1

The equation of the line in slope - intercept form is $y=\frac{-7}{4}x-5$


Explain what the slope-intercept form is?

Simply put, the slope-intercept form is the way to write a line's equation so that the y-intercept (where the line crosses the vertical y-axis) and slope (steepness) are instantly visible. This expression is sometimes referred to as y = mx + b form

Given: x = -4 , y = 2 and b = -5

y = mx + b

2 = m (-4) + (-5)

m = $\frac{-7}{4}$
By putting the value of m we get equation of line
$y=\frac{-7}{4}x-5$
