write the slope-intercept form of the eqaution of the line -1/2 and passing through the point (-5,2)

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

the general form of the equation in slope intercept form is \[y(x)=mx+b\] where the slope is \(m\) and the y-intercept is \(b\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-1/2x+2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait i have that right i think... i need: write the standard form of the equation of the line passing through A(-4,2) and B(2,5)

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

is this a different question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

YEAHH SORRY!

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

how did you get the answer to the first question/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

me and my friend went over those kinds of questions.. and i looked at my paper and i had my answer the same way i typed it on here...

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

well you are missing the y= bit

OpenStudy (anonymous):

uh oh. what do you mean i forgot a step

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

-1/2x+2 is not the equation of the line because it is not an equation ; there is no equal sign

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y=-1/2x+2??

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

im sure there is some information i your question missing

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

in*

OpenStudy (anonymous):
