Question

Which line has an equation of y = -5x + 4 in slope-intercept form?

a line passing through the points (1, 9) and (3, 19)
a line passing through the points (2, –14) and (4, –24)
a line passing through the points (1, 1) and (3, 11)
a line passing through the points (2, –6) and (4, –16)

Answer 1

The line with the equation y = -5x + 4 in slope-intercept form passes through the points (2, -6) and (4, -16).

Step-by-step explanation:

The line with the equation y = -5x + 4 in slope-intercept form passes through the points (2, -6) and (4, -16).

To determine this, we can substitute the x and y-values of one of the points into the equation. Let's use the point (2, -6):

-6 = -5(2) + 4
-6 = -10 + 4
-6 = -6

Since the equation is satisfied by the x and y-values of the point, this line does pass through the points (2, -6) and (4, -16).
