Question

Given a slope of 1/2 and a y-intercept of -4. What is the equation of the line in slope intercept form?

Answer 1

Answer:y=\frac{1}{2} x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form of the equation of a line is y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept. Plugging in 1/2 for m and -4 for b gives y = 1/2x + (-4) then simplifying adding a negative means subtracting.
