Question

A line has slope 23 and y–intercept −2.

Which answer is the equation of the line?


a. y=2/3x−2

b. y=−2x+2/3

c. y=2/3x+2

d. y=2x+2/3

Answer 1

A line of has 23 and y-intercept -2.
1. Add 2 to both sides

`y+2=23x`

2. Divide both sides by 24

`(y+2)/(23) =x`

3. Switch sides

`x (y+2)/(23)`

Answer: y = 23x-2

Hope this helps! :)
