Question

What is the equation of a line with a slope of 6 and y intercept of -2

Answer 1

6x-y=2 is the equation

Explanation:

The formula is y= mx+c where m= slope and c = y-intercept

so replacing their values,

y = 6x -2

y+2= 6x

6x-y = 2 is the required equation.

Answer 2

y=6x-2

Explanation:

Answer: to write an equation it has to be y=mx+b

The slope is 6, so you substitute the 6 in for the m. M is always the slope.

You also keep the x there.

The y intercept, also know as b, is -2 so you substitute that in for b.

Then you get the equation on the line.

y=6x-2!
