Math Problem Statement
y = -2/7x
Solution
The equation provided in the image is:
This represents a linear equation in slope-intercept form , where:
- is the slope of the line,
- since no constant term is present, meaning the line passes through the origin (0, 0).
The negative slope indicates that the line is decreasing as increases.
Would you like further details on graphing this line or have any specific questions?
