$4x+2y=-6\\
2y=-6-4x\\ y=-3-2x$ Divided by 2
$y=-3-2x\\
$ This is in slope form where the slope is -2

to find the y intercept you'll just let x = 0

y = -3 -2(0)
y = -3 - 0
y = -3

Standard form of a line is Y=mX+b

where m is slope

4x+2y=-6
2y=-4x-6
y=- 2x - 6

m= - 2 and y intercept is b=-6

There are 14 floors in the building, because since Juan went up 4 floors, down 3 floors, and up one floor; so we know that he is 2 floors above from where he originally started. Once he went down 9 floors he passed the starting point and went to the bottom of the building. So, the middle must have been the 7th floor. Once I knew that I multiplied 7*2 and it got me 14. So in total there are 14 floors. I hope this helped ^^

What is the equation in slope-intercept form of a line that passes through the points (5,3) (4,-3)

Darya [45]

Answer:

y=6x-27

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of a line given 2 points; use this equation.

$\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} = \frac{rise}{run}$
