Answer:

y = -2/3x + 22/3

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation is written in slope-intercept form when it is written as:

y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.

Therefore, because we are given m and a coordinate pair of the line, we can use the point-slope formula to make the equation.

The point-slope formula is \boxed{y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})}.

Because we are given only one coordinate pair, it is labeled as (x_{1}, y_{1}).

Now, just plug in this information and solve the equation.

y - 4 = -2/3(x - 5) Distribute the -2/3 throughout the terms.

y - 4 = -2/3x + 10/3 Add 4 to both sides of the equation.

y = -2/3x + 22/3

What are the y-intercept and the slope of the line represented in the graph?
sineoko [7]
Answer:

B

Explanation:

The y intercept can be read directly off of the graph, and is where the line intersects the y of the graph.

The slope (gradient) can be determined by using the equation y=mx+c, where we can substitute in the y intercept and an x and y value on the line.

y=mx+4

(2;0) is a point on the line, it is the coordinates of the x intercept (y intercept will work as well)
