Question 350192
<font face="Garamond" size="+2">

One question per post.  But since these are really just the same question with different numbers, I'll show you how to answer any question like this.


The slope intercept form is *[tex \LARGE y\ =\ mx\ +\ b]


where *[tex \Large m] is the slope and *[tex \Large b] is the *[tex \Large y]-intercept, that is *[tex \Large b] is the value of the *[tex \Large y]-coordinate of the ordered pair that represents the point where the graph of the line intersects the *[tex \Large y]-axis.


So, to solve either of your questions, first substitute the given slope number for *[tex \Large m].  Then take the *[tex \Large x]-coordinate of the given point and substitute for *[tex \Large x] in *[tex \Large y\ =\ mx\ +\ b].  And then take the *[tex \Large y]-coordinate of the given point and substitute for *[tex \Large y] in *[tex \Large y\ =\ mx\ +\ b].


Making those substitutions will leave you with an equation that has *[tex \Large b] as a variable.  Solve for *[tex \Large b] and you will have sufficient information to write your slope intercept equation.

My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it
