Question 10 • Initial Credit_Technical College Mathematics_2027

Which equation represents a linear function that has a slope of 4 fifths and a y -intercept of negative 6 ?

Answer

A

y is equal to negative 6 x plus 4 fifths

B

y is equal to 4 fifths x plus 6

C

y is equal to 6 x plus 4 fifths

D

y is equal to 4 fifths x minus 6

Explanation

A linear equation in slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. Substituting the slope 4/5 and the y-intercept −6 gives y = (4/5)x − 6, which is choice D.
