Question

Slope is –2 & (5, 3) is on the line. Y-Intercept: Equation of the line (no spaces):

Answer 1

Answer:

The y intercept is (0,13)

The equation of the line is y = -2x+13

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope intercept form of a line is

y = mx+b  where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = -2x+b

Substituting the point

3 = -2(5) +b

3 = -10 +b

Add 10 to each side

13 =b

The y intercept is (0,13)

The equation of the line is y = -2x+13
