Question

Y+3= -5(x-1) write the equation in slope intercept form

Answer 1

Answer: The equation in slope-intercept form:
`y=-5x+2`

Explanation:

The given equation of a line :
`y+3= -5(x-1)`

The equation of a line in slope -intercept form: y=mx+c, where m= slope , c=y-intercept.

We first use distributive property(a(b+c)=ab+ac) to simplify the given equation, we get

`y+3=-5x+5`

Subtract 3 from both sides, we get

`y=-5x-2`

Hence, the equation in slope-intercept form:
`y=-5x+2`
