Question 509662: slope 5.2 and y-intercept (0,-7) I am having trouble how to figure the slope-intercept equation y=? can you please explain? Thank you
Answer by mananth(16946)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
m= 5.2= 26/5

Plug value of the slope and point ( 0 , -7 ) in
Y = m x + b
-7 = 0 + b
b= -7 - 0
b= -7
So the equation will be
Y = (26/5)x -7
