Question

The slope of a line is -4, and the y-intercept is -3. What is the equation of the line written in slope-intercept form?

y = -4x - 3
y = 4x - 3
y = -4x + 3

Answer 1

Hi there! :)

We are given the slope of the line and its y-intercept.

So, we write the equation in slope-intercept form (y=mx+b)

m is the slope of the line, and b is the y-intercept.

y=mx+b

y=-4x-3

Hence, that's the equation (Option A)

Good luck.

Answer 2

y= -4x+-3 = y=-4x-3

The rest are wrong.
