Question

Please help! desperate need of it:)
Write the equation of a line in slope-intercept form that has a slope of -2 and passes through the point (2, -8).

Answer 1

Slope-intercept form:
\[y = mx + b\]
We know the slope:
\[m = -2\]
So plug that into our original equation:
\[y=-2x+b\]
We already know what \((x, y)\) are at one of the points:
\[(x,y) = (2, -8)\]

Can you do the rest?

Answer 2

wat is x and y?

Answer 3

\[(x,\ \ \ \ \ \ \ y) \ = \\ (2, \ \ \ -8)\]

Answer 4

wouldnt it be y=-2x-8
