myknow asked 5 years ago How to change any given line into Slope Intercept Form.
Find the equation of a line that is perpendicular to the given line y= -6x – 2 and passes through the given point (0,-12).
Education Desk Staff answered 2 years ago he slope-intercept form of the equation of a straight line is y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept (the point where the line intersects the y-axis).
An example of a straight line equation in slope-intercept form is y = 2x + 3. In this equation, the slope of the line is 2, which means that for every unit increase in x, the corresponding value of y will increase by 2. The y-intercept of the line is 3, which means that the line intersects the y-axis at the point (0,3).
To graph this equation, you can start at the y-intercept of (0,3) and use the slope of 2 to find other points on the line. For example, if you move one unit to the right (increase x by 1), you would move two units up (increase y by 2) to get the point (1,5). Similarly, if you move one unit to the left (decrease x by 1), you would move two units down (decrease y by 2) to get the point (-1,1).
