What is a equation in standard form for the line with a slope of 3 and a y-intercept of -4?

Question

What is is written in the formula Ax+By=C?

Answer 1

We start by writing the equation in slope intercept form y = mx + b since we are given the slope and y-intercept.

They tell us that our slope or m is 3 and our y-intercept or b is -4.

Therefore our equation in slope intercept form will be y = 3x - 4.

From here, we subtract 3x from both sides to get our x and y terms on the same side.

This gives us -3x + y = -4 which is our final answer.
