Question

Select all the statements that are true about the equation y=-2/3x+5

Answer 1

Answer:

The slope of the line is negative. The y-intercept is 5. The slope of the line is -2/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

With 2 given points on the line that are whole numbers, you can find the slope of the line with the equation $m=\frac{y2-x2}{y1-x1}$. The answer will tell you whether it's negative or positive. For example, $m=\frac{-2-1}{4-0} =\frac{-3}{4}$. The slope is negative for the example. The y-intercept would be the point with 0 as the x-value: (0, -5).
