Question

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line with slope 3/2 and -5 -intercept .

Answer 1

Given:

Slope of the line=

`m=(3)/(2)`

y-intercept of the line=

`b=-5`

Required:

Equation in slope-intercept form for the line.

Answer:

We know the slope-intercept form of the line given by,

`y=mx+b`

Therefore, substituting values, we get,

`\begin{gathered} y=mx+b \\ y=(3)/(2)x-5 \end{gathered}`

Final Answer:

The equation in slope-intercept form for the line is,

`y=(3)/(2)x-5`
