Answer:
y=3/2(x) -1, or y = 1.5x - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
To write the equation in slope-intercept form, you have to determine the y-intercept for the line. Since you have the slope and at least one ordered pair, you can find this by substituting the points and slope into this formula:
y=mx+b.
For this particular line, you would write:
-8 = 3/2(-6)+b
-8 = -18/2 + b
-8 = -9 + b
add 9 to both sides to isolate the b
-1 = b.
Now that you have the answer for b (-1), you can write the equation as:
y=3/2(x) -1
