Question

What is the equation of a line, in slope intercept form, that has a y-intercept of -1 and a slope

Answer 1

y = 5x - 1

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Intercept = -1

Slope = 5

To find the equation of line;

Equation of straight line is y = mx + c

Where;

m is the slope.

x and y are the points

c is the intercept.

Substituting the values in order to find the intercept, we have;

y = mx + 1

y = 5x - 1
