Question

y = -3/2 x + 4

–3x + 2y = 8

identify the slope and the y-intercept of the equation.
Describe how you would graph this line using the slope-intercept method. Be sure to write in complete sentences.
in the second equation change the equation into slope-intercept form
Describe how you would graph this line using the slope-intercept method.

Answer 1

The slope is the coefficient of the x, if y = ax + b, then a is the slope. You can calculate the y-intercept by calculating the function for x = 0.
