Question 127227

{{{2x+y=0}}} Start with the given equation



{{{y=0-2x}}}  Subtract {{{2 x}}} from both sides



{{{y=-2x}}} Simplify



So the equation is now in slope-intercept form ({{{y=mx+b}}}) where the slope is {{{m=-2}}} and the y-intercept is {{{b=0}}}. Note: the equation really looks like {{{y=-2x+0}}}
