Exercise 21 Page 78

Substitute the slope and y-intercept into the slope-intercept form.

y=-5x-7

Practice makes perfect
Lines written in slope-intercept form follow a certain format.

y= mx+ b In this form, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. By substituting m= -5 and b= -7 into this equation, we can write the line's slope-intercept form equation. y= -5x+( -7) ⇒ y=-5x-7
