Writing the equation of a straight line

Write the equation in slope-intercept form: 5x - 2y = 12

• y = 5/2x - 6
• y = -5/2x - 6
• y = 5x +12
• y = -5x + 12

Determine the slope and y-intercept from the following equation: y = 4/3x - 9

• slope: 4/3  

  y-intercept:

  (0, -9) 

• slope: 4/3  

  y-intercept:

   (-9, 0) 

• slope:  -9  

  y-intercept:  

  (0,4/3)

• slope: -9 

  y-intercept:  

  (4/3, 0) 

Match the correct equation to the graph

• y = 4x

• y = 9x

• y = 10x

• y = 3x

Find the slope and y-intercept of the following:

3x - y = 9

• Slope = 3, y-intercept = -9
• Slope = 9, y-intercept = 3
• Slope = 3, y-intercept = 9
• Slope = -1, y-intercept = 3

What is the equation of the line?

• y= x

• y= x+0

• y=2x-1

• y= 3x

What is the equation of a line that has a slope of -8 and a y-intercept of 2?

• y = 8x + 2

• y = 2x + 8

• y = -8x + 2

• y = 2x - 8

State the equation of the straight line -8x+2y=4 in the form of y=mx+c.

• y= 1/2 + 8x -4

• y= 2 - 4x

• y= 4x + 2

• y= 4x - 8y

State the slope and the y-intercept for the graph:
 $y=2x+2$  

•  m = -2    b = ( 0 , -2 )

•  m = 2    b = ( 0 , 2 )

•  m = 1    b = ( 0 , 1 )

•  m = 2    b = ( 2 , 0 )

What is the y-intercept?

 $y=-6x-8$  

• -6

• 8

• -8

• 6
