Question

Write the equation of the line with a slope of -2 and goes through the point (4, 10)

Answer 1

y=-2x+18

Because
y=mx+b

m= slope
x stays the same
b= y intercept (where the line hits the y axis, which in this case, the y intercept is 18 once you graph the line using the slope)

Answer 2

y= -2x + 10

Explanation:

( x, y ) = ( 4, 10)

y-intercept = 10

y = mx + b

m = slope = -2

b = y-intercept = 10

y = -2x + 10
