Another one :/ Write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form with a slope of –5 and a y-intercept of –1.

Question

hoblos · Answer

the formula says:
for a line having slope m  and a y-intercept of b , its equation in slope-intercept form is

y = mx +b               here  m=-5 and b=-1

so  y= -5x -1

anonymous · Answer

I'm really not sure what you even just explained.

hoblos · Answer

okay.. you have to apply the formula   y= mx +b  where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept .. what you only need to do is replace the given values of the slope and y-intercept

anonymous · Answer

so how do i do that lol

hoblos · Answer

you replace m by (-5) and b by (-1)

and you obtain   y= -5x - 1
