Question

A line has a slope of 1/3 and a y-intercept of – 2/3 . Write its equation in slope-intercept form. Write your answer using integers, proper fractions, and improper fractions in simplest form.

Answer 1

y =
`(1)/(3)` x -
`(2)/(3)`

Explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

here m =
`(1)/(3)` and c = -
`(2)/(3)` , then

y =
`(1)/(3)` x -
`(2)/(3)` ← equation of line
