A line has slope 5/6and y-intercept - 3. Which answer is the equation of the line? y=56x+3 y=56x-3 y=3x+56 y=-3x+56

The equation of a line is y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

The slope is 5/6 and y-intercept is - 3

The equation would be y = 5/6m - 3

Hi BeeBeeBumble,

Solution:

To find the equation you look at the first sentence of your question.

You see that its 5/6 and - 3

You know that you can take away the negative from negative 3 then just subtract.
