Question

Find an equation in slope-intercept form for the line with slope -12 and y-intercept = 1/2


a.2y = -12x - 1/2
b.-12 = 1/2y =12
c.y= -1/2x - 12
d.y= -12 + 1/2

Answer 1

m = -12
point = (0, 1/2)

Find the slope-intercept equation
y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
y - 1/2 = -12 (x - 0)
y - 1/2 = -12x
y = -12x + 1/2
