Question

What do I put for this this y = mx + b equation for this graph? I was disconnected from the last person and I’m not sure why.

Answer 1

From the problem, the slope is -3 and the y-intercept is 0

Note that in any equation in the slope-intercept form,

`y=mx+b`

m is the slope

and

b is the y-intercept

From the given,

m = -3 and b = 0

Subsitute it to the formula :

`\begin{gathered} y=-3x+0 \\ y=-3x \end{gathered}`

The equation of the line is y = -3x
