Question

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-4, -6) and has a

slope of -1/2?

Answer 1

y=-1/2x-8

Explanation:

If the slope is -1/2

you can put it into equation

so you have y=-1/2x+b

to solve for the y int solve for b: Plug in (-4,-6) in the equation

-6=2+b b=-8

so the final equation is

y=-1/2x-8
