Question

Choose the equation that's the line that passes through the point (-2,-3) and has a slope of -6

Answer 1

You didn't attach the options, but y = - 6x - 15

Explanation:

Using the equation y = mx + b, you can plug in values that you have to solve for b, the y intercept. Since m is the slope and the slope is - 6, and you have a y and x value, you can write the equation as follows:

-3 = - 6 * -2 + b

Then solve for b

-3 = 12 + b

-15 = b

Then you rewrite the original formula with the values of m and b:

y = - 6x - 15

Answer 2

Y = -6X - 15

Explanation:

-3 = -6(-2) + B

-3 = 12 + B

B= -15
