write an equation for the line with slope m and y intercept b. M=-2, B=square root of 2

The general equation of a line in slope-intercept form is:

\[
y = mx + b
\]

where:
- \(m\) is the slope of the line, and
- \(b\) is the y-intercept (the point where the line crosses the y-axis).

Given:
- \(m = -2\) (slope), and
- \(b = \sqrt{2}\) (y

Learn how to write the equation of a line with a slope of -2 and a y-intercept of √2. This problem explores fundamental algebra concepts and the slope-intercept form of a line, ideal for students in Grades 8-10.
