Answer:
Converting y = -2x +5 to point-slope form will be:
- [tex]y - 5 = -2(x-0)[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the slope-intercept form of the line equation is
y = mx+b
where
- m is the slope
- b is the y-intercept
Given the equation
[tex]y = -2x +5[/tex]
comparing with the slope-intercept form
Slope of the line = m = -2
The y-intercept b = 5
We know that the value of y-intercept can be determined by setting x = 0, and determining the corresponding value of y.
Thus, the ordered pair or point representing the y-intercept will be:
- (0, 5)
Now, we have
- The slope = m = -2
- The point = (0, 5)
Now, using the point-slope form of the line equation
[tex]y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)[/tex]
where
- m is the slope of the line
- (x₁, y₁) is the point
substituting the values m = -2 and the point (x₁, y₁) = (0, 5)
[tex]y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)[/tex]
[tex]y - 5 = -2(x-0)[/tex]
Therefore, converting y = -2x +5 to point-slope form will be:
- [tex]y - 5 = -2(x-0)[/tex]
