Question

A linear function has a y-intercept of -9 and a slope of ( 4)/(3) . What is the equation of the line?

Answer 1

y = 4/3x - 9

Explanation:

Finding the equation of the line in slope-intercept form:

Given the y-intercept and the slope, we can find the equation of the line in slope-intercept form, whose general equation is given by:

y = mx + b, where

• m is the slope,
• and b is the y-intercept.

Thus, y = 4/3x - 9 is the equation of the line with a slope of 4/3 and a y-intercept of -9.
