Question

Determine the equation of the line with slope m=2/3, passing through the point (0,4)

Answer 1

y = 2/3x + 4

Explanation:

The slope-intercept form is y=mx+b. m (the slope) is equal to 2/3, so you can substitute that number in for m. B is the y value of the y-intercept. The y-intercept is (0,4) as given in the problem, so the value of b is 4. You can substitute that value into the equation as well.
