What is the equation of the line that passes through (-3, -1) and has a slope of 2/5? Put your answer in slope-intercept form.
\n" ); document.write( "---------------
\n" ); document.write( "Form:
\n" ); document.write( "y = mx + b
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute for x,y,m and solve for \"b\":
\n" ); document.write( "-1 = (2/5)(-3) + b
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "-1 = -6/5 + b
\n" ); document.write( "-5/5 = -6/5 + b
\n" ); document.write( "b = 1/5
\n" ); document.write( "==================
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "y = (2/5)x + 1/5
\n" ); document.write( "==================
