I'm doing a course in Udacity and on a test..

0

My answers were
a) -3x / (0,2)
b) -1.5x / (0,1)
c) -0.6x / (0,.4)
d) -3x / (0,2)

but apparently they're wrong! The forum is completely dead and staff members don't give a cow about it, so can you guys lend me a hand on this?

My answers were
a) -3x / (0,2) y = -3x+2
b) -1.5x / (0,1) 2y = -3x+2
c) -0.6x / (0,0.4) 5y = 2-3x (Put the zero out the front so it is more easily read)
d) -3x / (0,2) y+3x-2 = 0

You are nearly right.
You have to put them into the from y = mx+b
m is the gradient. - you don't want the x as well.
b is the y intercept. You have found the y intercepts correctly but the question asked only for the y co-ordinate. The y co-ordinate of (0,2) is just 2.

There are loads of great video clips on you tube - if you don't understand things this is a great place to look. (just a suggestion for future reference)
