Question

Select the slope-intercept form of an equation for a line with y-intercept –5 and slope 2.

Answer 1

y = 2x + -5 put it in y = mx + b

Answer 2

y = 2x - 5

Explanation:

The format for slope intercept equation is:

y = mx + b

b is the y intercept and m is the slope, so plugging the numbers we have into the variables, we have:

y = 2x - 5
