Question

Answer as many as you can please (write in slope-intercept form)

Answer 1

Answer: See below

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first one, we are already given our slope. All we need to do is find the y-intercept, b.

y=-2x+b

6=-2(-3)+b

6=6+b

b=0

The slope-intercept form is y=-2x.

For the second one, we need to first find the slope using $m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$.

$m=\frac{1-13}{3-(-6)} =\frac{-12}{9}$

Now that we have our slope, we can plug it into our slope-intercept form to solve for b.

$y=-\frac{12}{9} x+b$

$3=-\frac{12}{9}(1)+b$

$-\frac{9}{4} =b$

The slope-intercept form is $y=-\frac{12}{9} -\frac{9}{4}$.

For the third one, we are already given the slope, so all we have to do is find b.

$y=-\frac{1}{2}x +b$

$-7=-\frac{1}{2} (-4)+b$

$-7=2+b$

$-9=b$

The slope-intercept form is $y=-\frac{1}{2} x-9$.

For the last one, we need to first find the slope using $m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$.

$m=\frac{-8-2}{3-1}=\frac{-10}{2} =-5$

Now that we have our slope, we can plug it into our slope-intercept form and find b.

$y=-5x+b$

$2=-5(1)+b$

$2=-5+b$

$7=b$

Our slope-intercept form is $y=-5x+7$.
