Write an equation in slope-intercept form of a line satisfying the given conditions.
-Slope $-\frac{2}{5} ; y$-intercept $\frac{18}{5}$
A) $y=-\frac{2}{5} x+\frac{18}{5}$
B) $y=-\frac{2}{5} x-\frac{18}{5}$
C) $y=\frac{2}{5} x+\frac{18}{5}$
D) $y=\frac{2}{5} x-\frac{18}{5}$

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The slope-intercept form of a line is $y = mx + b$, where $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the y-intercept. Given the slope $-\frac{2}{5}$ and y-intercept $\frac{18}{5}$, the equation is $y = -\frac{2}{5}x + \frac{18}{5}$.
