Question

What is the slope-intercept form of the line with the point (0, 3) and a slope = -2?O A. y = 2x + 3O C. y = -2x + 3D. y = -2x - 3B. y = 2x - 3

Answer 1

The form of the linear equation is

$y=mx+b$

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

The given equation is

$y=-2x+3$

Compare it with the form above to find m and b

Since the coefficient of x is -2, then

m = -2

Since m is the slope of the line, then

The slope of the line is -2

The answer is B
