ANSWER:
2-4 Writing Linear Equations
Write an equation in slope-intercept form for
10. slope
passes through (0, 8)
the line described.
SOLUTION:
8. slope 3, passes through (0, –2)
SOLUTION:
Substitute m =
and (x, y) = (0, 8) in the equation
Substitute m = 3 and (x, y) = (0, –2) in the equation y
= mx + b.
y = mx + b.
Substitute m = 3 and b = –2 in the equation
y = mx + b.
Substitute m =
and b = 8 in the equation
y = mx + b.
ANSWER:
y = 3x – 2
ANSWER:
9. slope
passes through (0, 5)
SOLUTION:
Write an equation of the line passing through
Substitute m =
and (x, y) = (0, 5) in the equation
each pair of points.
y = mx + b.
17. (–2, –6), (4, 6)
