Question

write an equation in slope -intercept form (if possible)for each line
with a slope of -1/2 and y intercept 5

Answer 1

this is the slope intercept form :

y = \(\color{red}{m}\)x + \(\color{green}{c}\)

Answer 2

where,

slope = \(\color{red}{m}\)
y intercept = \(\color{green}{c}\)

Answer 3

so m = -1/2

Answer 4

right, and c = 5

just plugin :)

Answer 5

so how do i set it up

Answer 6

y = mx + c

plugin the given 'm' and 'c' values in above equation

Answer 7

y = -1/2x + 5

Answer 8

thats it !

Answer 9

y=-1/2x+5

Answer 10

if u wondering why its called slope-intercept form,

in slope-intercept form, we *see* slope and intercept directly

Answer 11

like this, there are few other forms for a line, which are useful in some particular situations

Answer 12

so that would be my answer

Answer 13

ur previous reply is ur answer

Answer 14

thanks
