5-4 Writing Equations in Slope-Intercept Form A

Write an equation of a line that passes through the y-intercept -3 with slope 2.

• y = 2x + 3
• y = 2x - 3
• y = 3x - 2
• y = -2x + 3

Write an equation of a line that passes through the x-intercept 4 with slope -3.

• y = 3x + 4
• y = 4x - 3
• y = -3x + 12
• y = -3x - 4

Write an equation of the line that passes through each point with the given slope.

• y = -3x + 8
• y = -4/3x + 8
• y = 3/4x + 8
• y = -3/4x + 8

True or false:
The x-intercept of a function ALWAYS occurs where y is equal to zero.

• True
• False

Which ordered pair could represent a y-intercept on a graph?

• (6, 0)
• (0, 4)
• (-1, 3)
• (2, 0)

Is the point (3, 0) an x-intercept, a y-intercept, both, or neither?

• x-intercept

• y-intercept

• both

• neither

Write an equation of the line that passes through each pair of points.

• y = -4x - 1

• y = -4x + 2

• y = -6x + 1

• y = 6x - 1
