Jenny writes the equation y = 1/2x +5.
Why is she incorrect?

• The slope is -2, the equation should be
  y = -2x + 5
• The y-intercept is 4, the equation should be y = -2x + 4
• The slope is -1/2, the equation should be
   y = -1/2x + 5
• The y-intercept is -5, the equation should be y = -2x - 5

Convert the equation of the line

y + 5 = -3(x - 6)

into slope intercept form.

• y = -3x - 23

• y = -3x - 13

• y = -3x - 11

• y = -3x + 13
