Write an equation of the line with a slope of 2 that passes through the point (2,0)

You can use the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line.



m is the slope. We are told m = 2.

Now we have



We need to find b, the y-intercept. We are given a point, (2, 0). We replace x with 2 and y with 0. Then we solve for b.





Now that we know that b = -4, we replace b with -4.
