Question

Write the equation of the line with a slope of -5 and a y-intercept of (0,3).

Write the equation of the line with a slope of -1/3 and passing through the point (6, -4).

Write the equation of the line passing through the points (0, -4) and (-2, 2).

Write the equation of the line passing through the points (-6,1) and (-4,2).

Write the equation of the line with an undefined slope, passing through the point (2, 5).

Answer 1

Whoa, that's a lot of questions.... I suppose lets get crackin'.

Answer 2

I think I got the first one.

Answer 3

Lets start with the first one.

\(Write ~the ~equation ~of ~the ~line ~with ~a ~slope ~of -5~ and ~a ~y-intercept ~of ~(0,3).\)

The equation of a line in slope intercept form is,
\(y=mx+b\)
\(m=slope\)
\(b=y-intercept\)

What do you get as an answer for the first question?

Answer 4

y=3-5x

Answer 5

Yep, that is correct!

Now onto the second question.

Answer 6

Ok

Answer 7

Is it y=-x/3-2 ?

Answer 8

It is indeed!

Answer 9

Yay! I think I actually do get it now.

Answer 10

Do you know how to do the next one?

Answer 11

Yeah I think so, I'll try it and give you my answer.

Answer 12

y=-3x-4 ?

Answer 13

Correctomundo.

Answer 14

Thank you. I get it now. c:

Answer 15

No problem!
