Can someone help me with this? ... Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the graph of the given equation. (2, -2);y = -x-2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Could it be y = 2x ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay well I guess I am not the only one who doesn't understand this stuff! :) Thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

slope intercept form is y=mx+b

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so knowing the y and the x you just have to plug iin the #s

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I get very confused when they throw in the negatives. I am very bad at math.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes y is -2 and x is 2 but because the x is a negative does it make it a negative 2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if knowing the slope will stay the same (mx) then what would you change of the equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

negative to a positive

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i am not sure but should change the x
