Chapter 8.5, Problem 1E

To determine

To complete:

The givenstatement.

Answer to Problem 1E

The complete statement would be: An equation of the form $y=mx+b$ is written inslope-intercept form.

Explanation of Solution

Given:

An incomplete statement:An equation of the form $y=mx+b$ is written in $\underset{\_}{?}$ form.

Calculation:

We know that slope-intercept form of an equation is $y=mx+b$ , where m represents slope of line and b represents the y -intercept.

Therefore, the correct word for our given blank would be “slope-intercept”.
