Question

What is the slope-intercept equation of the line if the y-intercept= (0,2) and the slope= -1/4 ?

Answer 1

y = mx + b

Where 'm' is the slope and 'b' is the y-intercept.

Plug in the given information:

y = -1/4x + 2

Answer 2

`The\ slope-intercept\ form:y=mx+b\\\\m\to the\ slope;\ b\to y-intercept\\---------------------\\m=-(1)/(4);\ (0;\ 2)\to b=2\\\\subtitute:\\\\\boxed{y=-(1)/(4)x+2}`
