Given:
The equation of the line with a slope of −7 and a y-intercept of 2
Required:
Write the equation.
Explanation:
We know the equation of a line: Slope - intercept form
[tex]\begin{gathered} y=mx+b \\ y\text{ = y coordinate } \\ m=\text{ slope} \\ x=\text{ x coordinate} \\ b=\text{ y intercept} \end{gathered}[/tex]We have slope m = -7 and y - intercept 2.
[tex]y=-7x+2[/tex]Answer:
The line is y = -7x + 2.
