Question

Write the equation of the line through
(0,4) and (2, 0) in slope-intercept form.

Answer 1

y = -2x + 4

Explanation:

you can find your y-intercept by looking at the first point

( 0,4 ) -> when the x value is zero, then you have a y-intercept ( 4 )

you can find your slope by calculating the change in y over the change in x

4-0/0-2

4/-2

-2

therefore,

y = -2x + 4
