Can I have help please with slopes .

using the slope intercept format, we can plug in what we know for our new line.
y =mx+b
5 = -2(4) + b,
solve for 'b' then re write the equation with only the m and b terms with numbers.

Hi, so are you looking solve for b. I don''t understand what you mean by the other part.
5=-8+b, add 8 to both sides which cancels out the -8. b=13|dw:1436215552731:dw|
