Question

Write the equation of the line with the given slope and y-intercept Slope=1/2 y-intercept=7

Answer 1

y = (1/2)x + 7

Explanation:

recall that the general form of a linear equation in slope-intercept from is:

y = mx + b, where m = slope and b = y-intercept

in this case we are give the values for both

m = 1/2 and b = 7

hence simply substituting this into the general equation:

y = (1/2)x + 7
