Question 77103: The question is
Slope: 5; y-intercept: (0, -2)
I believe to figure the answer I would use:
y=5x-2
and the coordinants would be
(5,0)
(0,-2)
I am completely confused. Any help you can give would be great

THE LINE EQUATION IS Y=mX+b WHERE m=SLOPE & b=Y INTERCEPT.
SETTING Y=0 WE HAVE
0=5X-2
5X=2
X=2/5 OR X=.4 (0.4,0) IS THIS POINT.
SETTING X=0 WE GET
Y=0X-2
Y=-2 OR (0,-2) IS THIS POINT.
