is y=-7/4x+2 slope intersept form or not slope intersept form

1 answer

The equation \( y = -\frac{7}{4}x + 2 \) is in slope-intercept form.

In slope-intercept form, the equation of a line is expressed as:

\[ y = mx + b \]

where:

  • \( m \) is the slope of the line,
  • \( b \) is the y-intercept (the point where the line crosses the y-axis).

In your equation:

  • The slope \( m \) is \(-\frac{7}{4}\),
  • The y-intercept \( b \) is \( 2 \).

Thus, it is indeed in slope-intercept form.
