Question

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for this line.

Answer 1

Answer:

y = $\frac{3}{2}$ x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

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

Here m = $\frac{3}{2}$ , then

y = $\frac{3}{2}$ x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 4, - 7 ) into the partial equation

- 7 = - 6 + c ⇒ c = - 7 + 6 = - 1

y = $\frac{3}{2}$ x - 1 ← equation of line
