Question

please help

Answer 1

The line with X-intercept is 4 and y-intercept is is -2 find the slope intercept form

Answer 2

kinda confused please help explain step by step with the info i have

Answer 3

@wolf1728

Answer 4

When the x intercept = 4; y = 0
and when y intercept = -2; x=0
So we have 2 points
(4, 0) and (0, -2)

Answer 5

To see how to create an equation from 2 points, you can go here:

or I can type an explanation.

Answer 6

type please
i am trying to hurry

Answer 7

We'll use the equation
b = y-mx
b is the y intercept which is -2
-2 = y - mx

(skipping a few steps here:)

Equation is
Y = 0.5 X -2

Answer 8

The slope intercept form is y = mx + b

Answer 9

2=B???

Answer 10

b = -2
Is there a problem?

Answer 11

oh forgot my negative

Answer 12

what is the setup for a point slope form?

Answer 13

In other words how do you derive an equation with the slope intercept form?

Answer 14

ok

Answer 15

so it is the same?

Answer 16

I think it is the same.

Answer 17

sorry kinda tierd almost passed out in the feild by the track trying to do homework and recover

Answer 18

thanks for the help

Answer 19

u r welcome - and go to the link I posted to learn about creating equations, slope intercept form, etc

Answer 20

glad i got same answer as you it means i read what you said right yay

Answer 21

all right !!!
as they say great minds think alike!!

Answer 22

yep
