Question

Use the information to write a slope-intercept
equation:
Slope: -3
Point: (-2,-5)

Answer 1

y=-3x-11

Explanation:

Slope intercept form is y=mx+b. We can plug the slope -3 in for m and the point (-2,-5) in for the x and y values. This gives us -5=-3(-2)+b. We can solve it for b which gives us b=-11. Then we can form the equation y=-3x-11.
