Slope-Intercept Form, y=mx+b.
m is slope and b is y-intercept.
The form can be rewritten, b=y-mx.

EQUATION FOR LINE:

, Standard Form

write an equation in slope- intercept form. Second rewrite in stander form. third graph it. My information to do this is "passes through (3,5);m=-2.
---------------------
Form:: y = mx + b
Substitute for y,m, and x ; solve for "b"::
5 = -2*3 + b
b = 11
-----
Equation:: y = -2x + 11
--------------------------
Standard Form:: 2x + y = 11
--------------------------
x-intercept:: (11/2,0)
y-intercept:: (0,11)
--------
