Question

Write the linear equation in slope-intercept form passing through the point with the given slope:

(0, 3); slope = -2

y = -2x + 3
y = 2x - 3
y = -2x - 3
y = 2x + 3
y = -2x

Answer 1

y = -2x + 3

Since the point (0, 3) gives the y-intercept b = 3 and the slope is -2, the equation is y = -2x + 3.
