Question

Write the slope-intercept (y = mx + b) form of an equation for a line with y-intercept-5 and slope 2.

Answer 1

The slope-intercept form of the line is

$y=mx+b$

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

so we only need to substitute the values into the equation

m=2

b= -5

the equation is

$y=2x-5$
