Write the standard form of the line that has a slope of -3/4 and y-intercept of -2. Include your work in your final answer. Type
Nataliya [291]

3x + 4y = - 8

The equation of a line in standard form is Ax + By = C

where A is a positive integer and B, C are integers

Express the line in ' slope- intercept form '

y = mx + c → (m is the slope and c is the y-intercept)

here m = - \frac{3}{4} and c = - 2

hence y = - \frac{3}{4} x - 2 → equation in slope- intercept form

multiply all terms by 4

4y = - 3x - 8

add 3x to both sides

3x + 4y = - 8 → in standard form

What is the equation of the line? <br><br> Use y = mx+b
Olegator [25]

Answer:

y = - \frac{1}{2} x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + b ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (2, 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, 2) ← 2 points on the line

m = \frac{2-3}{4-2} = - \frac{1}{2}

Note the line crosses the y- axis at (0, 4) ⇒ c = 4

y = - \frac{1}{2} x + 4 ← equation of line
