Question

(-12,-5);slope =1/3 write in slope -intercept form​

Answer 1

y=1/3x-1

Explanation:

point intercept form is y=mx+b

m=slope

b=intercept

y=1/3x

now you use the coordinate point to find your b

(-12,-5)

x, y

plug in your x and y

-5=1/3(-12)

1/3(-12)=-4

-5=-4

add 4 to both sides

-1

b=-1

y=1/3x-1

Answer 2

y =
`(1)/(3)` - 1

Explanation:

y - y1 = m (x - x1)

y + 5 =
`(1)/(3)` (x + 12)

y + 5 =
`(1)/(3)` x +
`(12)/(3)`

y + 5 =
`(1)/(3)` x + 4

y =
`(1)/(3)` x - 1
