Question

What is the equation of a line that has a slope of -5 and passes through the point (0, 2)?

y = -5x
y = -5x + 2
y = 2x - 5

Answer 2

Y=mx+b

M=slope... B is also known as the Y-intercept

Answer 3

y=mx+b
You want the number in front of the x to be -5 and the b part to be the y-intercept (which was also provided)
Can you write it based on that?

Answer 4

Slope is always next to the variable and in the case your slope is -5 so you can eliminate the last one

Answer 5

thank you

Answer 6

I was too late :P

Answer 7

And you have the point (0,2) the two is in the y place so that is your y-intercept and as said before b= y-intercept
