Question

Find the slope-intercept equation of the line that passes through (0,1) and has a slope of -2/3

Answer 1

y = -2/3x + 1

Explanation:

We already know the slope, so all we need to do is find the y-intercept. To find that, we need to plug the coordinates into the equation so far, which is,

y = -2/3x + b

1 = -2/3(0) + b

1 = 0 +b

1 = b

So the equation is y = -2/3x + 1
