Question

how to find the slope intercept form of y=-2x+2

Answer 1

it is in slope intercept form:
y=mx+b
with:
m is slope
b is y intercept.

Answer 2

so that means slope is -2 and y intercept is 2

Answer 3

yes.

Answer 4

So as agreene said.... m is ur slope, so ur m in this equation is -2

Answer 5

thanks so it would be graphed as (-2,2)

Answer 6

So, ur b is the starting point so it would be (2,-2)

Answer 7

b = y intercept

Answer 8

yea but dont i still have to have another point on my graph because it says i have to have a straight line so what would the other point be?

Answer 9

sorry if im confusing

Answer 10

can I help?

Answer 11

do you use a ti-84 calculator?

Answer 12

yes you can help i really need it and no sorry :/

Answer 13

I could still help give me a second

Answer 14

okay thanks, i'll wait...

Answer 15

formula for slope intercept form is y=mx+b
familiar with this?

Answer 16

so do you also need y intercept?

Answer 17

yes im familiar with it and yes i also need the y intercept please

Answer 18

for y intercept is y=-2(0)+2
since you are solving for y the x value should be zero.

Answer 19

so the answer that i graph should be (-2,2)

Answer 20

that's if you need to solve for both x and y intercept.
But it's better to see it by step so you could understand it better.

Answer 21

no i only need to solve for y intercep so the answer would be?

Answer 22

So I will continue

Answer 23

okay thanks..

Answer 24

if only y intercept then is (0,2)

Answer 25

the slope is -2

Answer 26

so i would have to graph it as (0,2) then rise -2 ?

Answer 27

m=-2

y intercept is (0,2)

Answer 28

yes but do you know how to graph the slope

Answer 29

I'll draw the graph

Answer 30

so that means i graph (0,2) then run over -2 ?

Answer 31

okay i graphed the 0,2 but how do igraph the -2
