y = -2x + b 7 = -2(6) + b b = ?

this isnt the same question?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

slope-intercept form is y=mx+b they tell you the slope, m, is -2, so you plug that into your equation x and y will change, so what you need to find is b plug in the x and y values they give you, then solve for b 7=-2(6)+b 7=-12+b add twelve to both sides 19=b change x and y back to variables and add in the value of b you found y=-2x+19
