Question

sum1 help with my test asap
Write the equation of a line in slope-intercept form that has a slope of -2 and passes through the point (2, -8). (Points : 2)
y = -2x - 4
y = -2x - 8
y = -2x + 18
y = -2x – 12

Answer 2

Helping you on a test is something we cannot do here.

Answer 3

its not relly test but its long like a test i jus thought if i sid test ppl wouldctuallly help me

Answer 4

@Dido525

Answer 5

@AriPotta heyycan u help plz

Answer 6

@AccessDenied can u help please

Answer 7

put the information into pint-slope form first

Answer 8

point-slope*

Answer 9

y=mx+b?

Answer 10

that's slope-intercept form

Answer 11

point-slope is y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Answer 12

what do you get after putting the info in?

Answer 13

so y-8=-2(x-2)?

Answer 14

y + 8 = -2(x - 2)

Answer 15

y+8=-2x+4?

Answer 16

yes, and now "solve for y" to get it into slope-intercept form

Answer 17

my bad -

Answer 18

what did you do wrong?

Answer 19

oh nvm so it would = y=-2x-4 bc u add 8

Answer 20

yes

Answer 21

ok wat about this one Rewrite the equation of a line in point-slope form to slope-intercept form:

Answer 22

@AriPotta

Answer 23

no need to tag me, i'm right here ;)

Answer 24

:)

Answer 25

right now it's in point-slope form. so do the same thing we did to the last one for this one

Answer 26

y-3 wait its a fraction idk wat to do those confudse me

Answer 27

for the last one, we distributed, correct? just do the same thing with this one. 1/2 times x is 1/2x and 1/2 times -8 is..?

Answer 28

1/2-8?

Answer 29

no. :/ what's half of 8?

Answer 30

oh 4

Answer 31

-4

Answer 32

oh yea

Answer 33

continue.

Answer 34

=1/-2?

Answer 35

ok. let's take this by steps starting with what we started with

y - 3 = 1/2(x - 8)
y - 3 = 1/2x - 4

Answer 36

we need to continue to get into slope-intercept

Answer 37

one step left

Answer 38

+3 n +3
so y=1/2+1

Answer 39

-1!

Answer 40

yes, y = 1/2x - 1

Answer 41

ok wat about this one now
2. Write the equation of a line in slope-intercept form passing through (4, 5) and (6, 8)

Answer 42

make a new question thread

Answer 43

please
