Write the equation of the line displayed below in slope intercept form.

mxddi3:

so slope-intercept is y=mx+b b(y-intercept)= ? where does the line cross the y-axis?

fyxjffjgxjgfx:

at 3

mxddi3:

no, there is nothing on the point (0,3). try again

fyxjffjgxjgfx:

3,2

mxddi3:

no. the point is going to be, (0,y ) so on the line that goes up and down, what number does the green line touch the red line ?

fyxjffjgxjgfx:

4

mxddi3:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @fyxjffjgxjgfx 4 \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) yes, so, so far you have y=mx+4 now we are going to solve for m(slope) so in the image how many units down does the line go and how many units right does it go before it reaches the next point?

fyxjffjgxjgfx:

4 down and 4 across

mxddi3:

now divide what is \[\frac{ -4 }{ 4 }\]

fyxjffjgxjgfx:

-1

mxddi3:

yes, so you have y=-1x+4 or you can write it as y=-x+4 you can ask darkknight to make sure it's right

ok thank you
