Question

Please help! 25 points! Write the equation of a line with slope 3/2 and Y-Intercept -2.

Answer 1

Hello there!

For this question, we can use slope-intercept form of a line. The following equation is the format for slope-intercept form:
$y=mx+b$

In this equation, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. The slope and y-intercept is given. Thus, we just "plug in" the given values into the equation to get our answer. Replace "m" with "3/2" and replace "b" with "-2". After doing so, you get the following equation for the line.

$y= \frac{3}{2} x-2$

That should be your answer. Hope this helps! :)
