Question

Write an equation in slope -intercept form for the given slope and y-intercept.slope: -6; y-intercept: 1/5

Answer 1

The slope-intercept form of the equation is

`\begin{gathered} y=mx+c \\ Where\text{ } \\ m\text{ is the slope} \\ c\text{ is the y-intercept} \end{gathered}`

Given that;

`\begin{gathered} m=-6 \\ c=(1)/(5) \end{gathered}`

The equation of the line will be

`y=-6x+(1)/(5)`

Hence, the answer is

`y=-6x+(1)/(5)`
