Question

write the slope-intercept equation for the line with slope -1/2 and y-intercept (0.3) and graph the line

Answer 1

The problem furnishes you the following;

Slope m = -1/2
Point P (0,3) x=0, y=3
We have been taught the slope intercept form is: y = mx +b

Answer 2

Couldn't you just write: y=(-1/2)x + 3 ????

Answer 3

There was really noting to work out here, I guess the problem was to test your ability to read and comprehend.

Answer 4

don't forget to graph the line

Answer 5

Oh yes, there is the problem, you will need to locate another point. Find the other intercept.

Answer 6

you can graph using the slope and y-intercept
