Write the equation of a line with a slope of -2 and a y-intercept of 5:

a) -2 + y = 5

b) 2x - y = 5

c) y = -2 + 5

d) y = 5x - 2

The equation of a line with a slope of -2 and a y-intercept of 5 is y = -2x + 5

Solution:

Given that slope is -2 and y-intercept is 5

We need to find the equation of line

The equation of line when slope and y-intercept is given can be calculated using "slope-intercept form"

The slope intercept form is given as:

y = mx + b

where "m" is the slope of line and "b" is the y-intercept

Plugging the given values in slope intercept form, we get

y = -2x + 5

Thus the required equation of line is found
