Drew said the equation for the line is Y equals 5X -3 math says the equation be negative 5 X plus Y equals -3 who is correct and why

1 answer

Drew is correct. The equation for a line in slope-intercept form is Y = mX + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept. In this case, m = 5 and b = -3, so the correct equation is Y = 5X -3. The equation -5X + Y = -3 is not in slope-intercept form and does not accurately represent the line with a slope of 5 and y-intercept of -3.
