Question

Write the equation that describes the line in slope-intercept form. slope = 5 point (2,-4)

Answer 1

Answer:

y = 5x - 14

slope intercept form is y = mx + b

m = slope

after substituting 5 in for m you end up with y = 5x + b

you substitute (2, -4) for x and y

-4 = 5(2) + b

next step is to solve for b.
