Question

Find the equation of the line with the slope 2/7and the y-intercept (0,2).

The equation of the line is _____

(Type an equation. Type your answer in slope-intercept form. Use integers or fractions for any numbers in the
equation.)

Answer 1

`y = (2)/(7)x + 2`

Explanation:

`y = mx + b`

Where

m = slope

=
`(2)/(7)`

b = y-intercept

y-value which has a x-coordinate of 0:

= 2

Substitute the values of m and b in the above equation:

`y = ((2)/(7))x + (2)`

∴Equation of the line:

`y = (2)/(7)x + 2`
