Question

8. Write the equation for a line that has a slope of 5 and a y-intercept of
negative 12.

Answer 1

Explanation:

equation of the line is given by the equation

y=mx+c

in this question you are given the slope (m) as 5 and the y intercept (c) as -12

therefore the equation will be

y=5x+(-12)

y=5x-12

Answer 2

`y=5x-12`

Explanation:

This is in slope-intercept form,
`y=mx+b` where
`m` stands for the slope and
`b` stands for the y-intercept.

Hope this is helpful.
