Problems in Slopes and Intercepts

What is the equation of a line with a slope of 2 and a y-intercept of -5?

• y = 5x - 2

• y = 2x - 5

• y = -2x - 5

• y = 2x + 5

Parallel Lines never intersect because...

• they have the same slopes. 

• they have the same y-intercept.

• they have different slopes.
