Question

Write an equation of a line with the given slope and y-intercept. m = –5, b = –3. A. y = –5x – 3 . B. y = –5x + 3 . C. y = 5x – 3 . D. y = –3x – 5

Answer 1

y = mx + b
y = -5x -3

Answer 2

Equation of straight line is:
y=mx+b
m=slope
b= y-intercept
Hence,
y=-5x-3 is the required equation
