Question 782003: y = -3x – 6, with the ordered pair being (-1, 5)IN SLOPE INTERCEPT FORM. wHAT IS THE SLOPE? AND WHAT IS THE SIMPLIFIED EQUATION?
Answer by josgarithmetic(39618)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
y=-3x-6 is a line equation in slope-intercept form. The ordered pair, (-1, 5), is NOT with that line. What slope are you asking?

Observe:
y=-3x-6
(5)=-3*(-1)-6
5=3-6
5=-3 FALSE



Recheck your exercise problem and maybe post again the corrected version.
