Question

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line with slope 1/5 and y-intercept -2 .

Answer 1

`\begin{array}c \cline{1-1} slope-intercept~form\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y=\underset{y-intercept}{\stackrel{slope\qquad }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{m}x+\underset{\uparrow }{b}}} \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\qquad \implies \qquad y=\stackrel{\stackrel{m}{\downarrow }}{\cfrac{1}{5}}x\underset{\underset{b}{\uparrow }}{-2}`

Answer 2

y=1/5x-2

Explanation:

The slope intercept form is y=mx+b
