Question

Write the equation of the line with slope 4 through the point (-2, 5) in slope -intercept form.

Answer 1

Answer: y = 4x + 13

Explanation:

First, you can already fill in some values:

y=4x + b

To find the y-intercept, you can plug in the values that are given.

In the point, the x is -2, and the y is 5.

So if you plug in the values into the equation, you get:

5 = 4(-2) + b

5 = -8 + b

5 = -8 + 13

b = 13

So in the end, the equation is

y = 4x + 13
