Question

Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line with the given slope m and y-intercept b.

m= -3, b=9/8

Whats the equation of the line in slope-intercept form.

Answer 1

`y=-3x+(9)/(8)`

Explanation:

Slope-Intercept form is:

`y = mx+b\\\rule{150}{0.5}\\m \text{ - slope}\\b \text{- y-intercept}`

We are given the values of m and b, so we would just replace them with the given value.

`y =mx + b\rightarrow \boxed{y=-3x+(9)/(8)}`

Hope this helps you.
