What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-2,7) and has a slope of -2
Let's say that y=mx+b, m=slope, b=y-intercept
y=-2x+b
We can solve for b using given coordinates on the line (-2,7)
7=-6*(-2)+b
b=-5
Therefore, the equation would be y=-2x-5.
Hope this helped!
Actually, the equation would be y = -2x + 3.
