Question

write the equation in slope intercept form

Answer 1

HI Sophia,

Your question: a line has a slope of -4 and a y intercept of 2

write the equation in slope intercept form

Given: Slope = -4 y-intercept = 2

Find: The equation in slope intercept form.

The slope intercept form equation of a line is

y = mx + b

m = the slope

b = the y-intercept.

So y = mx + b m is the slope = -4 b is the y-intercept = 2

y = -4 x + 2

Hope this helps!
