Question #d8025

1 Answer

Feb 17, 2017

$y = 8 x - 9$ $y = color(red)(8)x - color(blue)(9)$

Explanation:

The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is: $y = m x + b$ $y = color(red)(m)x + color(blue)(b)$

Where $m$ $color(red)(m)$ is the slope and $b$ $color(blue)(b)$ is the y-intercept value.

Substituting the information from the problem gives:

$y = 8 x + - 9$ $y = color(red)(8)x + color(blue)(-9)$

$y = 8 x - 9$ $y = color(red)(8)x - color(blue)(9)$
