Vocaloid (vocaloid):

a linear equation takes the form y = mx + b where m = slope and b = y-intercept

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

in this case, you are given: m, and an x and y-coordinate

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

let m = -5 x = 3 y = 4 therefore: 4 = (-5)(3) + b and solve for b

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

let me know if you get stuck

OpenStudy (jakob):

Yeah sorry IK this is super easy I forgot how to do this Lol I learned it like a week ago

OpenStudy (jakob):

Could You Write out the equation Please

OpenStudy (jakob):

I will do all the Wrk

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

4 = (-5)(3) + b start by multiplying (-5)*3 = -15 therefore 4 = -15 + b b = ?

OpenStudy (jakob):

19 right?

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

good! so going back to the original equation y = mx +b y = -5x + 19 = your answer

OpenStudy (jakob):

Thx bro I am a man of my word
