Answer:
- slope: -3
- y-intercept: -5
- equation: y = -3x -5
Explanation:
a) The slope (m) is given: -3.
__
b) The y-intercept (b) can be found from the slope (m) and the given point (h, k) using the relation ...
b = k -mh
b = 4 -(-3)(-3) = 4 -9
b = -5 . . . y-intercept
__
c) Of course, the slope-intercept equation is ...
y = mx +b
y = -3x -5
