Transcript text: Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line with slope $-\frac{2}{5}$ and $y$-intercept 2.

Solution

Step 1: Identify the slope (m) and y-intercept (b)

The given slope (m) is -0.4, and the given y-intercept (b) is 2.

Step 2: Substitute the values of m and b into the equation

By substituting the given values into the slope-intercept form $y = mx + b$, we get:

The slope-intercept form of the equation for the line is: $y = -0.4x + 2$
