Answer:

y=-2/3x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so the formula to find slope is y=mx+b, so we would start off by writing that. M in the equation represents the slope and b represents the y-intercept.

y=mx+b

y=-2/3x+b

y=-2/3x+8

Equation: y= -2/3x+6. you but the coordinates where it is on the slope formula. 8=-2/3(-3)+b and then you solve for b. then you plug b in with the slope formula along with the slope. so it would be y=-2/3x+b

Which graph represents y – 1 = 2(x – 2)?<br><br> Thank You! :)

Llana [10]

Y = 2(x – 2)+1
y = 2x – 4+1
y = 2x-3

insert x=0 -> y=-3, only the first graph passes through (0,-3) -> it is the first graph
