Question

Which of the following equations has a graph with a slope of 2/3 and a y-intercept of −2?

A. y − 2 = 2/3x
B. x = 2/3 y − 2
C. y = −2 + 2/3x
D. y = −2x + 2/3

Answer 1

C

Explanation:

If we rearrange C to make it easier to identify:

y=2/3x-2

As we know, y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. So, if we look back at the equation of C, 2/3 is the slope and -2 is the y-intercept.
