Question

Write the equation of the line with the given slope, 2 and y-intercept, 1/2.
A. y = (1/2)x - 2
B. y = (1/2)x + 2
C. y = 2x - (1/2)
D. y = 2x + (1/2)

Answer 1

it is d

Answer 2

do you understand why that is though?

Answer 3

Thanks. No.

Answer 4

well the basic form of an equation of a line is y=mx+b, with b being the y-intercept and m being the slope. For more info, I highly suggest watching Khan Academy videos (if u have time). He's quite clear. btw this is called "slope-intercept form"

Answer 5

Thanks again I think I might have time when I am done at ten!
