What is the equation of the line that has a slope of 1/5 and a y-intercept of -1

A y = 1/5x — 23/5

B y = 1/5x — 1

C y = 1/5x + 1

D y = 1/5x + 23/5

Respuesta :

Answer:

C   y = 1/5x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form: y = mx + b where m = slope and b = y-intercept.

Substitute into the slope intercept form m= 1/5 and b = -1

y = 1/5x - 1
