Question

Write an equation of a line with the given slope and y-intercept. slope: - 13 y-intercept: –1

Answer 1

y = -13x - 1

General Formulas and Concepts:

Algebra I

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

• m - slope
• b - y-intercept

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify variables

Slope m = -13

y-intercept b = -1

Step 2: Find Equation

1. Substitute in variables [Slope-Intercept Form]: y = -13x + -1
2. Simplify: y = -13x - 1
