Question

Write the equation of the line with the givin slope and y-intercept form GET 10 POINTS

Answer 1

The answer is

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

Explanation:

Let The equation is

`y = mx + c`

Since the straight line intersects with Y axis at - 1

Then x equal to zero

Since m=1/3

Then

`y = (1)/(3) x + c \\ when \: y = - \: \: and \: x = 0 \\ then \: c = - 1 \\ y = (1)/(3) x - 1`
