b =
What is the new equation written in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b?

Respuesta :

Answer:

m=-2

b=2  

Equation in Slope-Intercept Form: y= -2x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form, y = mx + b of the given line will be y = -2x + 2.

What are a line and its slope?

A line section that can connect two places is referred to as a segment.

The slope of a line is tan of the angle from the positive x-axis.

In other words, the slope is just the intensity of inclination of any curve at a point for example x = sinx has 0 inclination at x = 0.

The line is here! It extends endlessly in both directions and has no beginning or conclusion.

Given that the points are  (–3, 8) and (4, –6).

Slope m = difference in y coordinate/difference in x coordinate

m = (-6 - 8)/(4 +3 ) = -2

So our equation will be

y = -2x + n

Now for b put  (4, –6) than

n = 2 so

The equation will be y = -2x +2 hence it will be the correct answer.
