Question

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line with slope 3/2 and -5 -intercept .

Answer 1

Given:

Slope of the line=

$m=\frac{3}{2}$

y-intercept of the line=

$b=-5$

Required:

Equation in slope-intercept form for the line.

Answer:

We know the slope-intercept form of the line given by,

$y=mx+b$

Therefore, substituting values, we get,

$\begin{gathered} y=mx+b \\ y=\frac{3}{2}x-5 \end{gathered}$

Final Answer:

The equation in slope-intercept form for the line is,

$y=\frac{3}{2}x-5$
