Question

What is slope intercept form?

Answer 1

slope-intercept form: y = mx + b
when m = slope and b = y-intercept

Answer 2

y=mx+b

Answer 3

y=mx+b!

Answer 4

What is the equation of the line shown below, in slope-intercept form?
A. y = -2x – 4
B. y = 4x – 2
C. y = -4x – 2
D. y = -4x + 2

Answer 5

im so confused

Answer 6

@jigglypuff314 to the rescue

Answer 7

what number does it cross the vertical line at?

Answer 8

-2

Answer 9

yes, that number is called the y-intercept
y intercept = b
in the equation y = mx + b
so you have y = mx - 2 so far :)

then, can you figure out what the slope is?
like every time it goes right one square, how much does it go down?

Answer 10

is there a second point that i can count from? 0.o

Answer 11

mmm second point can be (1, -6)

Answer 12

4/1 <--- slope

Answer 13

well it's going down tho
so Negative 4
right?

and since slope = -4
and slope = m in the equation

plug m = -4
into y = mx - 2

Answer 14

y=-4x-2

Answer 15

Correct! :)
