There is a line whose slope is 6 and the y-intercept is -7. What is its equation in slope-intercept form?

y = 7x - 6

y = -7x + 6

y = 6x - 7

x = 6y - 7

A line has a slope of 5 and passes through the point (3,5). What is its equation in slope-intercept form?

y = 3x - 5

y = 5x - 15

y = 5x - 3

y = 5x - 10

A line passes through the points (0, 4) and (3, 10). What is its equation in slope-intercept form?

y = ##2##x + ##4##

3 -1 2 -2 4

Rewrite the following equation in slope-intercept form.

2x + 17y = -12

y = (-2/17)x - 12/17

y = (-2)x - 12

y = (-2/17)x - 5/17

y = (-6/17)x - 12/17
