write an equation of a line with the given slope and y-intercept. m = –2, b = 4 y = 4x – 2 y = –2x – 4 y = -1/2x 4 y = –2x 4
Answer:
\(\text{The equation of line is }y=-2x+4\)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the values of m=-2, b=4
we have to write an equation of line with above values.
As the general equation of straight line is
\(y=mx+b\)
where m is the slope and b is y-intercept
Substitute the values of m and b in above equation
m=-2, b=4, we get
\(y=-2x+4\)
which is the required equation of line.
