Question

on the graph plot a line that has a y intercept of 3 and a slope of -3/5.What is the equation for the graph?

Answer 1

We need to plot a line that has a y- intercept of 3 and a slope of -3/5

The general equation of the line is : y = m *x + b

Where m is the slope and b is y - intercept

So,

`\begin{gathered} b=3 \\ m=-(3)/(5) \end{gathered}`

The equation of the line will be :

`y=-(3)/(5)x+3`

And the graph of the line will be as shown in the following picture :
