Concept explainers
To find: Slope and y-intercept of each line.
Answer to Problem 2OE
The slope of give line is -2 and y-intercept is -1, that is 1 towards down from origin.
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The equation
Formula used:
Slope-intercept line:
Where m is slope of line, and c is y-intercept of line.
Recall Slope-intercept line:
Where m is slope of line, and c is y-intercept of line.
By comparing, we get
The slope of give line is -2 and y-intercept is -1, that is 1 towards down from origin.
