Question 1065168: Please help me find b for y=mx+b. Here is the question: A line passes through the point (1,6) and has a slope -2. Find b.
Answer by math_helper(2461)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Ok, I will give you a hint: the line passes through (1,6) tells you that when x=1, y=6. Use that, and the given slope (=m) of -2 to find b. Once you know b, plug it in to y = -2x + b and you'll have the complete point-slope equation of the line.
