Question

y = -5/4x + 1/2 is an equation in slope-intercept form of the line with slope -5/4 that contains the point P(-2, 3)

True or false?

Answer 1

Do you know the formula y=mx + b ?

Answer 2

where m is a slope. Then plug x=-2 and y=3 and see if you will have a true statement

Answer 3

ok

Answer 4

substitute the value of the slope(m) and (x,y) to check if it satisfies the equation. .answer is ?

Answer 5

true, thank you!

Answer 6

you are welcome
