Question

Write the equation of a line in slope-intercept form that has a slope of -2 and passes through the point (2, -8).

Answer 1

y = mx + b
x = 2 and y = -8
slope(m) = -2
now sub and what do you get ?

Answer 2

you need to solve for b

Answer 3

y = -2x - 4? @kelliegirl33

Answer 4

y=-2x+4

Answer 5

wait no its y=-2x-4

Answer 6

@jr221 you are correct

Answer 7

y = mx + b
-8 = -2(2) + b
-8 = -4 + b
-8 + 4 = b
-4 = b
equation is : y = -2x - 4....you are correct

Answer 8

thanks
