Slope-Intercept Form of a Line: Edgenuity Answer

In slope-intercept form, moving a line vertically changes the intercept b without changing the slope m. For h(x) = -(2/3)x + 5, moving the graph down 3 units changes b from 5 to 2.

Evidence boundary

This answer addresses the publicly visible Edgenuity Try It item using h(x) = -(2/3)x + 5 and a downward shift of 3 units. Edgenuity course versions and randomized quiz items can use different equations or choices, so the result should not be transferred to a different prompt without checking its displayed values.
