Question

Write an equation in slope intercept for for the like with slope -3/5 and
y-intercept -3

Answer 1

y = -3/5x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The format of slope-intercept is:

`\sf{y = mx + b}`

Where:

• m = slope
• b = y-intercept

So to write the equation, I just plug the data into y = mx + b:

`\sf{y=-(3)/(5)x+(-3)}\\\\\sf{y=-(3)/(5)x-3}`

Hence, the equation is y = -3/5x - 3.

Answer 2

An equation for the slope and y-intercept would be y=-3/5x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember the formula for this, y=mx+b, in which the m stands for the slope and the x would be next to the slope always because the slope is ever changing, and the b stands for the y-intercept or in other words, where the line crosses the y-axis not the x-axis.
