Question

Write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form with a slope of -5 and a y-intercept of -1.

Answer 1

y=-5x-1

Answer 2

y=mx+c where m is the slope and c the y intercept

Answer 3

first of all write y=mx+c
now put the value of slope in the equation
y=-5x+c
now you've been given y intercept which means put x=0
so y=-1, when x=0
-1=5*0+c
therefore c=-1
and your equation is
y=-5x-1 hope that helps @ambermarie
