Lesson 5 Homework Practice Slope-intercept Form _top_ -

A line crosses the y-axis at -2. It passes through the point (4, 1).

If the slope is a whole number (like $3$ or $-2$), you must turn it into a fraction by putting it over 1. lesson 5 homework practice slope-intercept form

In the equation ( y = \frac23x - 4 ):

To graph a line using this form, you follow a two-step process starting from the y-intercept: This is your starting point on the vertical y-axis. Apply the slope ( ): Treat the slope as a fraction ( A line crosses the y-axis at -2
