Question

Write an equation in slope intercept form that passes through the point (2,-2), and has a slope that equals -2 (please hurry)

Answer 1

y = -2x + 2

Explanation:

Plug in the point and slope into y = mx + b, and solve for b:

y = mx + b

-2 = -2(2) + b

-2 = -4 + b

2 = b

Plug in the slope and y intercept into y = mx + b

y = -2x + 2

So, the equation is y = -2x + 2
