What is the equation of a line, in general form, with a slope of -2 and a y-intercept of 8?

2 x + y - 8 = 0
x + 2 y - 8 = 0
2 x - y + 8 = 0

2 answers

recall the slope-intercept form is y = mx+b
that is equivalent to -mx+y-b = 0
So which choice fits with your values?
Y = mx+b
Y = -2x+8
2x+y -8 = 0.
