Question

Enter the equation of the line in slope-intercept form.

Slope is -3, and (4,2) is on the line.
The equation of the line is

Answer 1

y = -3x+14

Explanation:

Slope intercept form is

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = -3x+b

Substitute the point into the equation to solve for b

2 = -3(4)+b

2 = -12+b

2+12 = -12+b+12

14 = b

y = -3x+14
