What is the equation of line W in slope intercept form?

Hey there!

Our goal is to create the slope intercept equation for line W, which requires two things that we need to find out: the slope and the y-intercept.

We see that Line W is parallel to line V. Therefore, they have the same slope. So, the slope of Line W is 10/7.

Now, we need to find the y-intercept. To do this, we will plug the slope and the point we are given into the slope intercept equation and solve for b.

-3= 10/7(-3)+b

-3= -4 2/7+b

b=1 2/7

Now, we plug this into our final slope intercept form.

y=10/7x+1 2/7

I hope this helps! Have a great day!
