is your answer c or d?

563blackghost (563blackghost):

Cause your work shows that you got D but you circled C...

OpenStudy (bellezabrilla):

my answer was c

563blackghost (563blackghost):

Your answer is incorrect... The equation for slope-intercept form is.... \(\huge{y=mx+b}\rightarrow{\color{red}{-\frac{2}{3}(x+5)}}\) Your work is correct...but not your answer....

OpenStudy (bellezabrilla):

but in the problem it says that the y-intercept is 5 (positive) ?

OpenStudy (bellezabrilla):

@563blackghost

563blackghost (563blackghost):

That is correct it does but when inputting a positive in an equation where b is positive then the 5 would stay positive...so it would be D

OpenStudy (bellezabrilla):

So the correct answer is D ??
