Question

The linear equation when b = 5 and m = –2 is

Answer 1

Answer:

quadrant no 4 (+-) inthis

Answer 2

The required linear equation is y=-2x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

• Given that b=5 and m=-2
• That is y-intercept b=2 and slope m=-2

To find the linear equation with given conditions :

• With y-intercept and slope we can write the slope intercept form equation

The formula for Slope intercept form is y=mx+b

where  m is the slope of the straight line and b is the y-intercept (where the line cuts the y-axis)

• Substituting the values in the formula we get
• y=(-2)x+5
• y=-2x+5 is the equation of a straight line

Therefore the required linear equation is y=-2x+5
