Write the slope-intercept form of the equation of the
line through the given point with the given slope.
10. through: (5, -3), slope -4/5.

Respuesta :

Answer:

  • y = -4/5x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form:

  • y = mx + b, where m- slope, b- y-intercept

Use point (5, -3) and m = -4/5:

  • -3 = -4/5*5 + b
  • -3 = -4 + b
  • b = -3 + 4
  • b = 1

The line is:

  • y = -4/5x + 1

Answer:

b = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that

y = mx + b

-3 = -4/5 × 5 + b

-3 = -20/5 + b

-3 = -4 + b

-3 + 4 = b

1 = b
