Question

Please help me

Given that a linear equation has a slope of 2, and a y-intercept of 8, determine the slope-intercept and standard forms of the line.


A.y = 2x + 8; 2x + y = 8


B.y = –2x + 8; 2x – y = –8


C.y = 2x + 8; 2x – y = –8


D.y = –2x + 8; 2x + y = 8

Answer 1

hint:

slope-intercept form is y = mx+b

m = slope
b = y-intercept

Answer 2

ok so It would be A. then @jim_thompson5910

Answer 3

are y = 2x + 8 and 2x + y = 8 equivalent?

Answer 4

No but its the only thing positive @jim_thompson5910

Answer 5

solve 2x + y = 8 for y to get _________

Answer 6

I got y=8-2x @jim_thompson5910

Answer 7

which is the same as y = -2x + 8

Answer 8

so clearly y = 2x + 8 and 2x + y = 8 are NOT equivalent

Answer 9

that's why choice A is false

Answer 10

ok so it would be D than @jim_thompson5910

Answer 11

@jim_thompson5910 ??

Answer 12

no it's C.y = 2x + 8; 2x – y = –8

Answer 13

o ok thank you
