Question

What is the equation of the line whose slope is 1/3 and y-intercept is -4?

Question 1 options:

y=−4x+13

y=13x−4

y−4=13x

3y=−4x

Answer 1

y=1/3x-4

Explanation:

the slope-intercept format of the line is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

we are given the slope (1/3) and the y intercpet (-4).

substitute the numbers into the equation

y=1/3x-4

the answer is y=1/3x-4

hope this helps!
