Question

what is the y-intercept of the lne that has a slope of -1/2 and passes through the point (2,3)?

Answer 1

\(\bf \begin{array}{lllll}
&x_1&y_1\\
&(2\quad ,&3)
\end{array}
\\\quad \\

slope = m= -\cfrac{1}{2}
\\ \quad \\

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\qquad \textit{plug in your values and solve for "y"}\)

Answer 2

ok, so y-3=-1/2(x-2)?
