Aline intersects the point (3,-4)and has a slope of 17 .what is the slope - intercept equation for this line?

The slope - intercept equation for this line is y = 17x - 55

Step-by-step explanation:

The general form of the slope-intercept form is

y = mx +b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

We are given slope m = 17

we need to find b the y-intercept.

To find y-intercept we would use point(3,-4) and formula

y = -4

x = 3

m = 17

b=?

y = mx + b

-4 = (17)(3) + b

-4 = 51 + b

b = -4 -51

b = -55

So, y-intercept is -55

The slope - intercept equation for this line is y = 17x - 55

wholesale price is the initial price before markup. retail price comes after the markup.

a price of 8 bucks that's marked up by 100%   is

formula: initial price + (percent markup in fraction/decimal)(initial price)

8+(1)(8)

8+8

16

retail price is $16.
