-7
OpenStudy (triciaal):
y = mx + c
8 =-7(0) + c
c = 8 + 7 = 15
y = -7 x + 15

question said find the slope intercept eqn of the line
cannot just be a number
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh yea didn't read that
OpenStudy (triciaal):
btw you gave the slope, they already gave y = 8 from the point (0,8)

what is it?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i dont know but its wrong my hw is online and it said its wrong
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ohhh
OpenStudy (acxbox22):
the answer is y=-7x+8
OpenStudy (acxbox22):
since the coefficient of x is always the slope in linear equations and b or y-intercept is equal to 8 this is the equation

omg thank u
OpenStudy (triciaal):
the method is correct
and y = mx + c
OpenStudy (acxbox22):
it is y=mx+b
OpenStudy (triciaal):
ok y = mx + b here
I forget sometimes my son corrected me before too
i learnt c for constant sorry
