Question

Write the standard form of the line that has a slope of - and y-intercept of -2. Include your work in your final answer. Type your answer in the box provided or use the upload option to submit your solution.

Answer 1

Slpe intercept form is 
y = mx + b  where m=slope and b = y-intercept

so here we have
y = -x - 2

standard form is x + y = -2

Answer 2

You need to go from slope-intercept ($y=mx+b$) to standard form ($ax + by = c$).    

slope-intercept form of your provided values:  
$y=-x-2$  
now, solve for x and y  
$x+y=-2$  
  
Your answer is $x+y=-2$.
