Slope and y-intercept

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 11-10-29] [Hit: ]
which is 0.Since the y-intercept is 0, you dont necessarily have to show it in your equation.Your final answer is y=-1x or y= -x.Hope this helps!so y = -x.......
Write the slope intercept form for the equation of a line with the given slope and y intercept.

M = -1; y-int: (0,0)
I did the problem but I'm not sure do you show the 0?

The slope intercept form is
y = mx + b
Since the slope is -1, you substitute -1 for m.
b represents the y-intercept, which is 0.
So you get y = -1x + 0
Since the y-intercept is 0, you don't necessarily have to show it in your equation.
Your final answer is y=-1x or y= -x.

Hope this helps!

Recall the equation y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

so y = -x... it would be pointless to put "+ 0" b/c its not adding anything and it is assumed that 0 is the intercept because to get the y intercept of the line we let x = 0

so with our equation y = 0. so you don't have to.

-
equation of a line is y=mx+b, in this case b=0 so you don't need to show it.

-
y = -1x + 0
y = -x

-
y = -x
