Question

Find the equation of the straight line with the
slope m= 1/2 and the y intercept is -1​

Answer 1

y =
`(1)/(2)` x - 1

Explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m =
`(1)/(2)` and c = - 1 , then

y =
`(1)/(2)` x - 1 ← equation of line
