Question

M = 1/2 (0, -3)
Write the equation of a line using slope intercept form

Answer 1

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

Explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m =
`(1)/(2)` and crosses the y- axis at (0, - 3) ⇒ c = - 3

y =
`(1)/(2)` x - 3 ← equation of line

Answer 2

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

Explanation:

slope intercept form is y=mx+b

b is y intercept

so we plug the coordinate into the equation

-3=
`(1)/(2)`(0)+b

-3=b

so y intercept is -3

so we then write our equation which is,

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