Question

18) Write an Equation Given the Slope and y-Intercept

The equation for a line has a slope of 1/3 and y-intercept of - 6.
A) y = 1/3x + 6
B) y = 3x - 6
C) y = 1/3x - 6

Answer 1

C) y = 1/3x - 6

Explanation:

y=mx+b

m=slope

b=y-intercept

1/3=m

-6=b

then plug in the numbers to get: y=1/3x - 6

Hope this helps! :)
