Write a linear equation and provide a graph for an equation in slope intercept form with a negative slope and a y-intercept of 0. Please help! :)

Question

carlyxphan · Answer

Would it be a horizontal line because the y intercept would have to be at 0?

marihelenh · Answer

No, it can still intercept 0 and not just be horizontal. So, y=mx+b --> y=mx. Just put in a negative value for m and you will have your line.

triciaal · Answer

linear equation in slope-intercept form 
y = m x + b  where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (when x = 0)

carlyxphan · Answer

So would that be the correct graph?

anonymous · Answer

okay, this is not the answer for anything and its really off topic, but phan is life.

carlyxphan · Answer

Omg yes phandom <3

triciaal · Answer

slope is the change in y divided by the corresponding change in x 
given 2 points on a line (x1,y1) and (x2, y2) the slope, m  is (y2 - y1) / (2 - x1)

triciaal · Answer

the slope is the same for any 2 points on that line
