Question

i never understood this question, If the slope of a straight line is 0 and the y-intercept is –2, what is the equation of the line?

Answer 1

the formula for the equation is y = mx + b, so just plug in numbers

Answer 2

m = slope = 0
b = y-int = -2

so you have y = (0)x -2
so it is y = -2

Answer 3

another question

Answer 4

What is the slope of the line 8x + 6y = 12?

Answer 5

again, if you convert to the formula y = mx + b, by isolating the y

Answer 6

-3?

Answer 7

or 3/4?

Answer 8

so you have
8x + 6y = 12
6y = -8x + 12
y = -8/6x +12/6

so y = -4/3x +2

Answer 9

so what number is in the position of m

Answer 10

-4/3 got cha, thanks a lot

Answer 11

correct

Answer 12

yw :)
