@shamim

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

What's the y intercept?

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

Slope would be y2-y1/x2-x1 Use the points 0,1 and 1,-1

OpenStudy (girlgoyleh.):

the slope equals -2 right?

OpenStudy (shamim):

Right

OpenStudy (girlgoyleh.):

and i dont know how to find the y intercept, it kind of looks halfway?

OpenStudy (shamim):

The line crosses +y axis. Where?

OpenStudy (shamim):

Plz c x=0 and y=1

OpenStudy (shamim):

So y intercept is=1

OpenStudy (girlgoyleh.):

oh thanks, so how would i write that in the equation?

OpenStudy (shamim):

y=-2*x+1

OpenStudy (shamim):

U r most welcome!!!

OpenStudy (girlgoyleh.):

thanks shamim and dan!
