What’s the slope intercept form of the line whose slope is 7 and that passes through the point (-4,9)

Answer 1

slope intercept form is

y =mx + b, where m= slope and b=intercept

solve for b by plugging in the point, x=-4, y=9

y = 7x + b

9 = 7(-4) +b

9=-28 +b

b = 9 +28 = 37

y = 7x +37 is the line with slope 7 through (-4,9), in slope intercept form,

the slope = the coefficient of the x term when the equation is solved for y

the y intercept = the constant term = 37 or the point (0,37)
