Question

Write the slope intercept form of the equation for this line

Answer 1

y = -4/5x - 10/5

Explanation:

There are 2 coordinates on the graph: (-2,0) and (3,-4)

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (-4 - 0)/(3 - -2) = -4/5

given m = -4/5, y = 0, x = -2

y = mx + b

0 = -4/5(-2) + b

0 = 10/5 + b

b = -10/5

=> y = -4/5x - 10/5
