Question

What is the equation of a line that goes through the point ( 0 , - 3 ) and has a slope of - 2 ?

Answer 1

Answer: y = -2x -3

Step-by-step explanation:

The basic form for an equation is: y = a * x + b.

In which "a" is the slope of the line and "b" is point where the line crosses the y-axis, also known as the y-coordinate.

When you fill in these values you will find your result.

Answer 2

Answer:

y-y₁=m(x-x₁)

=>y-(-3)=(-2)(x-0)

=>y+3=-2x

2x+y+3=0
