What equation represents a line with a slope of -2/9 and y intercept of 3

1 answer

The equation of a line in slope-intercept form is given by the formula:

\[ y = mx + b \]

where \( m \) is the slope and \( b \) is the y-intercept.

Given the slope \( m = -\frac{2}{9} \) and the y-intercept \( b = 3 \), you can substitute these values into the equation:

\[ y = -\frac{2}{9}x + 3 \]

This is the equation that represents the line with the specified slope and y-intercept.
